The U.S. Department of Justice has reached a settlement agreement with Grand Circle LLC, doing business as Grand Circle Travel to resolve alleged violations of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The company cancelled the reservation of a person who uses a motorized scooter without offering a reason. The agreement will make sure that persons with disabilities, including those who use wheelchairs or other mobility aids, have equal access to the company’s travel services and facilities. The company will also change its treatment of customers with disabilities and train its staff on the ADA.
