Writers are usually people watchers and I am no exception.
On my last four flights, I've observed my fellow travelers. Invariably, there are several people in wheelchairs waiting to board. They are boarded first because they need extra time and assistance. And they are the last people off the plane - again because of the additional time and assistance needed.
My observations have taught me that there are miracles preformed during flight. I say this because the number of people needing assistance OFF the plane for each flight was always less than the number needing assistance ON the plane.
I would never accuse anyone of faking the need for assistance just so they can board first, get comfortable, and snag premium room in the overhead compartments. There must be something in those complimentary beverages causing these miracles. I'd be a millionaire if I could bottle that for use on the ground.
