Do you actually realise how that comment makes you sound? I don’t like using the word but Bigoted isn’t too strong I’m afraid.

The opening line needs to be read in it's entirety!

What I am eluding to is that this gentleman is simply grandstanding! He is able to crawl the Kokoda Trail, yet because of pride he won't be pushed in a wheelchair, so elects to crawl, so let him. He then tries to make out that he is being victimised by the airline. He is not being victimised, nor was he singled out, this is a blanket policy which applies to all wheelchair bound patrons.
