The site Reduced Mobility Rights review air travel rights in the article, "People with Reduced Mobility Travel Rights."



People with reduced mobility (PRM) travel rights vary considerably depending which airline one chooses, and which is the final destination of the flight.
 
While all IATA (International Air Transport Association) member airlines should comply with IATA resolution 700, (Acceptance and Carriage of Incapacited Passengers) European and Non European Air Carriers are subject to different regulations depending on the final destination of the flight.
 
The duties and rights of people with reduced mobility can be found in two separate regulations: U.S. Department of Transportation 14 CFR Part 382 (Nondiscrimination on the Basis of Disability in Air Travel) and EU Regulation 1107/2006 concerning the rights of disabled persons and persons with reduced mobility when travelling by air.
