Will the flight crew allow us to take turns in the Business seat? e.g. can I use the business seat during the first half of the flight, and then switch seats with her so she can use it during the second half?
I've heard of other people doing this. As long as the persom sitting in the seat has the boarding pass in their hands, I highly doubt the FAs will give you a hard time.
