A plane passenger is still in the air about her decision not to give up the seat of the aisle that she bought from another traveler during her flight.
The woman remembered her travel story at the UK Parenting Forum Mumnet on February 22 and then asked the forum if she behaved unreasonably.
“I booked (and paid for) a aisle chair and a middle chair,” she started her post. “The flight was full, so we knew that someone would sit on the window on the window. The man arrived behind us and it was very clear that he would really have trouble pressing over 2 seats and in his chair. He was very, very overweight (no judgment, only the facts mentioned). '

Then the man asked them if he could have the aisles.
“It was a 4.5 -hour flight and I had chosen the seat of the aisle so that I went to the [toilet] Easy – weak bladder, “she wrote. “The stewardess became involved and also asked us if we could” just move. ” It was really embarrassing for everyone involved, but I stood on my ground and refused. '
“The man took the chair out of the window, but it took him a while to shake over,” she continued and added that the man, unlike her, paid a chair in advance, which means that he was chosen for him on the basis of the remaining seats that were not bought on their flight.

She noticed that she had no bad intentions and that “he was a nice man.” She preferred the aisle because she often uses the toilet, and when the man had to go to the bathroom, they “liked him.”
“I don't believe I was unreasonable because I had paid for the seats, but it made me feel a bit bad for him,” she admitted before she asked the MumNet forum for their opinion. “It is not much sense to pay for seats if you can't really sit on it. Was I unreasonable? “

The response to the woman's question was mixed in the commentary section.
“He was clearly wrong,” answered a person. “He should have pre -treated if he had special requirements. If it was a last-minute emergency flight, he should at least offer to reimburse the costs of your seats if that is not offered and to buy a drink or something like that. “
In the meantime, another mumnet user said that the man “wasn't wrong.”
“He asked a question that would make a little easier for himself, [you] Said no (not unreasonable), he took a seat and there were no bad feelings, “wrote that reader. “Sounds like it escalated in a large drama where someone is right and the other is wrong.”
A third reader replied: “Don't feel bad about it, you also had a real reason to want the chair from the aisle. Feel proud of yourself.”
