SEATING SNAFUS
What Do You Think about Passengers Who Won’t Give Up Their Airplane Seats So That Other People Can Sit Together?
Shouldn’t everybody on the plane be entitled to sit next to a friend or family member?
On my last flight to California there were two women traveling together who were seated apart.
They both had aisle seats, but those aisle seats were nowhere near each other.
It was going to be a six hour flight and they wanted to sit together.
So one took her assigned seat and the other plunked herself down in the seat across the aisle from her pal and waited for the person who had been assigned that seat to turn up so she could talk them into swapping seats with her.
And?
She struck out. A couple turned up to claim the aisle seat she was sitting in and the middle seat next to it.
So The Friends Who Wanted to Sit Together sat down in two aisle seats, across the aisle from each other, neither of which they were assigned to. Then the folks who belonged in those seats turned up to claim them and didn’t want to move to accommodate them.
