"...needs a window seat to minimize movement. We originally booked middle seats because no window seats were available,...."

The answer is that you should have selected another flight that met your needs.   Unless this was a new and recent injury, it was on you to book ahead in the correct seats.    [/quote]

If so why do they have this medical request form that is backed by the law?[/quote]

Here's what you posted.  "However, you must assign to the passenger any seat, [b]not already assigned to another passenger[/b] that accommodates the passenger's needs, even [b]if that seat is not available for assignment to the general passenger population at the time of the reques[/b]t."

If another passenger has already been assigned that seat, you are out of luck.  You can have 10,000 medical forms and you are still out of luck.

Airlines sometimes block seats, though, and they arent available to anyone.  In that case, the airline must give you those seats as an accomodation even though they are not available.  It does NOT mean that you get someone else's seat.[/quote]
