Why is this rude? I think it's far better than when a couple picks a window and aisle seat and some poor soul gets stuck between them.
Bolding mine: Agreed ^ and goalie-parents do this all the time when they fly. I do try and upgrade them but if the upgrade doesn't clear, it's so much better for them as where they don't book aisle and window*, one of them is not stuck in the middle seat
*and with flights being as full as they are, the odds of booking an aisle seat & a window seat with the hopes of the middle seat staying empty are very slim
