That is to say, those confined to their chairs. Mobility impaired seating is in stadium style seats that do not require navigating stairs to reach their location. Some stadiums may have extra wide seats and/or additional leg room for mobility impaired seating. But most are just normal seats not requiring stairs. Accessible aisle seating typically has a moveable armrest or no armrest to make getting in/out of the seat easier. Accessible aisle seats can be located anywhere in the stadium with some requiring navigating stairs.<br /><br />Lastly, all major stadiums will offer wheelchair service to/from ones seat. Same as wheelchair service at any major airport.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
