Yelling that you have a bomb as you’re about to board a flight is probably the quickest and most efficient way to be blocked from boarding. After all, whether you have a bomb on you or not, no airline wants to deal with the potential panic that could erupt during the flight if you begin screaming that you’re about to blow up the plane mid-air.
But what if your screaming “bomb” was the result of a documented disability? Well, this is the sticky ethical situation that British Airways was faced with last Saturday.
