Consider an ad as part of a page (that's the effect for the user). Does the page (ad included) meet WCAG checkpoints?

Planes flew all over the screen, and all sorts of other annoying things took place). I guess i am wondering in what cases do banner ads / interstitial ads / etc impact browsing, and second to that, if banner ads, etc cause enough of a problem that they can make a page inaccessible. I hope my questions make sense... any thoughts?
