A holding system for a wheelchair in an aircraft is proposed, including a plate-shaped base unit having first fastening elements at an underside configured to be connected to complementarily shaped second fastening elements in the form of seat rails on a floor or surrounding structure in the aircraft for fastening the base unit, a front holding unit and a rear holding unit arranged on an upper side of the base unit at a distance from each other and defining therebetween a placement area for a wheelchair. The front holding unit and the rear holding unit are configured to form a releasable form-fit connection with the wheelchair disposed on the placement area so that the wheelchair is braced between the front holding unit and the rear holding unit. The holding system is configured to fix the wheelchair stationarily to the floor during operation of the aircraft.
