Passenger with psoriasis – outraged after easyJet staff ‘questioned her about it before letting her board flight’

This makes me so sad but it’s something that people face dealing with chronic skin conditions.

Holly Dillion 26 from the UK was questioned about her skin condition at a airport in Portugal. She suffers from psoriasis which leaves scaly patches on the skin. There are claims the check-in attendant raised “health and safety concerns” due to her skin. Ironically, she actually booked a vacation because of her inflamed skin.

I would never fault the check-in employee as many people aren’t aware of chronic skin conditions, I hope this situation raises awareness.

*Holly is the founder of #getyourskinout which encourages suffers to show off their psoriasis to increase awareness. Which is an awesome campaign!

Incase you don’t know what psoriasis is…
