"We do not get involved in disputes between pax"
A few years ago in the winter I was on an AA flight from DFW to DCA. I was in the bulkhead window seat on the starboard side of the plane. It was pitch black dark when we left Dallas. The pax in the center seat told me to pull the shade down. I told her I enjoyed looking out the window at the lights of cities (when cloud cover permitted). In about fifteen minutes she reached her hand over and closed the window shade.
I called the FA and told her I wanted to keep the shade up. The pax said that she had a rare eye disease and that her eyes were so sensitive that even starlight was painful for her. I will swallow a little bull .... but this was a txrd.
