Story 10:
I was flying business class once, the kind where the seats fully recline for comfort. I booked late and had to choose a seat in a spot I didn’t like at all. I sat down, and a man immediately came over, asking me to give him my seat so he could sit in the same row as his family. I agreed, moved to his seat, which turned out to be in a much better location than mine.
As I was getting settled, a woman by the window saw me and loudly exclaimed, “I asked not to have anyone sit next to me!” I explained that a man was originally supposed to be in that seat, but we had swapped. She called a flight attendant. The attendant repeated the same explanation, but the woman insisted she didn’t care.
Of course, I sat down, only to find that she had taken my blanket, cosmetic bag, and pillow — all provided to business passengers. I thought, “Why is she so arrogant? She could have bought 2 seats and not complained.” Then I realized she probably hadn’t even paid for the seat herself, as she’d spent half the morning typing a memo. Looks like she was flying on company money — but her crown sure grew the second she sat down. © tina_platonova / Threads
