My only "beef" with British Airways is their "policy" of
insisting that anyone using a wheelchair sit in a window
seat (regardless of their pre-booked seat assignment).
It is a pity all airlines do not adopt that rule. In an emergency anyone who
has problems with movement is a hindrance to more mobile persons evacuating
the aircraft.
If in an aisle seat they could block other passengers in that row from getting
out quickly enough.
A very rare occurrence in practicality but one BA has at least thought about,
and decided to put the onus on the emergency situation.
