The present invention relates to transport of passengers with reduced mobility. In order to provide for improvements in handling wheelchair transport onboard an aircraft, a restraining device (10) for restraining a wheelchair in a cabin area on board of an aircraft is provided. The device comprises a beam-like base structure (12) being elongate in a beam extension direction, at least two floor connectors (14) attached to the base structure and at least one restraining connector (16) attached to the base structure. The floor connectors are spaced apart from each other in the beam extension direction. The floor connectors are configured to temporarily mount the base structure to a seat rail floor support (18) in an aircraft cabin. The restraining connectors are configured to be temporarily connected to a structural part of the wheelchair to hold the wheelchair in place with a passenger seated therein.
