This happened to a friend - Bar would not serve her a drink just because she was blind without a "carer" with her - accessible tourism and travel has a long way to go with these sorts of attitudes!:
Jo and I have experienced some of these issues ourselves - so many businesses in Tourism want to recover Covid19 losses but forget they need to provide a quality service/product to justify their high prices:
A statement by an operator of accessibility means absolutely nothing unless you get full precise details & extensive photos & descriptions - Everyones needs for accessibility & even definition of accessibility are different:
Working Theory:
Many people don't want to do the work of thinking about a problem, forming a plan, and then communicating that clearly and concisely – in writing.
They like meetings because it outsources that effort to groupthink and still lets them feel productive/valuable.
