Mom's viral airplane seating hack stirs debate; solo flyers 'can't stand' it
Fox News
An Idaho mother's viral airplane seating hack on TikTok has created an online debate. Some families and solo travelers disagree with the trick and argue it's "a gamble."
Before sharing the airline seating tip, Darrington prefaced the video by saying this "sometimes" works. "If you're willing to gamble a little bit, and if you're checking your odds to see how many seats are still currently open on the flight up until the day of, you might just get lucky like we have a couple of times." "It's so important to be considerate on travel days." Sydney Borchers is a lifestyle production assistant with Fox News Digital.
Darrington said you can select an aisle seat and a window seat in a single row, leaving the middle seat open, hoping that no one books the middle seat.
