Which condition would disqualify a passenger from sitting in the exit row?

Exit-row seating is reserved for passengers who can actively help in an evacuation. That means you need enough mobility, strength, and dexterity in your arms, hands, and legs to perform duties like operating the exit and guiding others to safety if needed. If someone lacks sufficient ability in all those areas, they wouldn’t be able to meet those responsibilities, so they’re not eligible for an exit row. Wearing contact lenses, or having mastered reading instructions, doesn’t affect the ability to perform those duties, so they aren’t disqualifying. Traveling with a small child can raise safety concerns, but the explicit disqualifying factor tested here is the lack of physical ability to perform the exit-row duties.
