Flight fright: Family asks person to switch plane seats, he refuses — and big trouble ensues
Fox News
A Reddit user recently described a flight back to the U.S. from Europe — and how a family asked him to change his seat so they could sit together. He declined — and the mom chewed him out, he said.
He described a flight home to the U.S. from Europe of "roughly 10 hours" in duration, and said that he booked his "ticket specifically to be closer to the front of the plane so I can be closer to the gate when it’s time to get out." "Respectfully, ma'am, your travel issues are not my problem. I am keeping the seat I paid for," the man said. To date, the original story posted on Reddit has received 1.4K comments so far and over 10,000 "upvotes." "If you intentionally sit in someone else’s seat, you’re setting yourself up for a confrontation and the flight attendant will make you go back to your original seat, thereby causing delays." "I didn’t realize this was a thing families did. Thanks for mentioning it. Will keep that in mind about standing my ground." Maureen Mackey is managing editor of lifestyle for Fox News Digital.
He added, "I personally hate traveling, so I spent a bit more money to be closer" to the front of the plane.
