This is why every southwest flight has 20 boomers in wheelchairs at the front of the line for preboard.

One time I was traveling with a blind girl who had a guide dog and the boomer patrol had occupied all the bulkhead space. They seemed to think she should sit with a German Shepherd in her lap. Needless to say I aggressively advocated and reminded the flight crew that FAA regulations entitle persons with guide dogs to a bulkhead seat. Let me tell you, we got some stink eyes from the displaced boomers who didn't want to have to walk an extra six feet to the potty.

Google didn't find those regulations for me.

They don’t appear to be indexed well anymore. However here[1] is a fairly recent article mentioning the existence of the space rule. If I fly with a guide dog user again I’ll be sure to find the actual rule.
