During a visit to Paris, Samantha Renke encountered difficulties finding a taxi and accessible restaurants due to her motorized wheelchair. Paris is striving to become universally accessible before hosting the Olympics and Paralympics, with plans for wheelchair-accessible taxis, improved airport facilities, and accessible public spaces. However, concerns remain about the readiness of transportation and public infrastructure for visitors with disabilities. The city is also working to change public attitudes towards disability and improve accessibility in hotels and transportation services. The upcoming Games are seen as an opportunity to promote long-term investment in accessibility and inclusivity.
