Yes, this would probably require the attendant stay with you and you may prefer to be alone, but it seems like it solves the issue regarding carrying bags. Would a wheeled carryon bag and a foldable stool also work? I'm unclear as to how you would be able to lift/maneuver any cart or baggage. --TheMiddleSeat I can imagine two scenarios: Someone injures themselves while having a chair on their own - that's no good! Retrieval of the chairs, or they end up stranded somewhere. For these two reasons I can see the airport policies evolving to keep an attendant with the chair. If you need the chair, then the attendant will come along with it until you are boarded. That seems to be how they want to do it? I wouldn't fight that policy unless it was disagreeable in some way.
