On my flight today the first guy to board needed a bit of extra time getting to his seat, pretty clear he might have had a disability. His pass beeped, they asked the standard “willing and able” emergency-exit question, and he still ended up in the exit row.
It just didn’t seem like the best spot for him, and I felt weird watching it play out. Anyone else notice situations like this or have thoughts on how crews decide who’s actually okay for those seats?
