United Airlines Introduces New Tools to Better Accommodate Wheelchair Users

United Airlines announced a new tool to help wheelchair users identify flights that can accommodate their mobility devices.

The tool allows travelers to enter wheelchair dimensions and see flight options that fit their chair.

United will offer fare refunds if a better-equipped flight was more expensive.

A pilot program at Houston airport will aim to quickly reunite travelers with damaged wheelchairs.

The updates follow a complaint filed after a wheelchair was damaged, leading to a passenger's death.
