In that Biur Halachah, the Chafetz Chaim, in trying to explain a Halachah brought down by the Kaftor VaPherach, states that although HaKadosh Baruch Hu specifically requested Eliyah HaNavi to appear before Achav, nevertheless, Achav is considered a "Ba'al Bechira" with regard to the life of Eliyahu and thus Eliyahu's life was deemed to be in danger.
