Children and adults with type 1 diabetes faced “appalling” treatment at London Stansted Airport and were made to feel like criminals, according to a number of complaints made to the BBC.
One mum from Lowestoft, in Suffolk, claimed her teenage son was “adamant he won’t fly again” after feeling “bullied” into going through an X-ray scanner that could damage his medical devices. Others described being taken to a room to be searched while their essential equipment was kept at the security desk.
The airport said all its security staff “receive thorough training” to provide “understanding and awareness” of medical conditions, and apologised to one family for any “confusion or distress” caused.
