According to the link posted below, we do have the 'right" to
have equal access to travel.

" The act is intended to
remove the nonsafety related barriers both physical and
attitudinal
for that matter to air travel by people with disabilities. The act is
intended to ensure that passengers with disabilities enjoy equal
access to the nation's air transportation system and are afforded
the safe and dignified service that they all that they and all
others
expect and deserve. The act and the implementing regulation
which I will refer to as 382 is meant to remove the hassle and
stress that is sometimes encountered by folks with disabilities
prior
to its passage...."
