I am sure that, seeing that you require special assistance, most of the people will not think of you as a seat poacher. Since you have internet connection, at least what you may do is that, at the time of booking, make sure that you have an asile seat.

Now I'm sitting in someone else's seat before s/he boards, I can't physically move to another seat, and it's kind of hard to explain that I'm not an evil seat poacher (at least not intentionally).
Any suggestions for my situation?
