This article talks about the hardships a person with disabilities faces, but this article continues on to show how people  are working on making travelling more accessible for people. This article focuses solely on making it easier for people with disabilities to have a better time while travelling and making the whole flight from start to finish easier.

In some aspects this article looks towards the neo-conservative ideology. By making it easier for persons with disabilities to travel, it means more income for the company. This new feature is both income savvy and fits the ideology very nicely. This type of program helps a specific amount of people in a certain setting. This fits the ideology of neo-conservative ways very well.

The social ideology also fits well with this article. The people pushing the movement of easier air travel for one affected with disabilities and are looking for equality. This ideology is present in this article because with the ability of making it easier for people to travel this also increases the freedom of the person.

The implementation of this sort of assisted travel allows for people affected with a life altering disability to regain freedom in many ways. By being able to travel again this makes their life a little more normal  and allows for their lives to be more relatable and easier to live.
