Disabled traveller says Qantas treatment is tops

A wheelchair-bound traveller has ranked a recent flight from London to Singapore on Qantas as "perfect".

Writing for travelweekly.co.uk, John Roberts said the flight was "the best" he had ever been on and particularly praised the efforts of the airline's customer service team, which had a wheelchair ready at the door of the plane when it landed in Singapore.
