I was desperately seeking to change my biz class seat for a middle in row 24 between a couple of 250llb fast food junkies. The downside of being EXP!
We are reliably informed that the offspring of all FlyerTalk members behave impeccably on aircraft 100% of the time, so complaining here might make you feel better but will do no good.
