I really appreciated that.
I don't understand why the ambien poppers don't get window seats? I see that fairly often that people insist on isle seats, then they pass out and are in the way for others. Seems more appropriate and comfortable to opt for a window seat in that case...

I flew from MUC to MIA once with my 6 year old son who had panic and asthma attacks on cramped planes. We had middle seats on a 4 people row, not our option but what was left as available. When we got there, my son was in the middle of a asthma attack and the aisle seat would have been much better for him so he can get distracted and have a feeling of getting air (for psychological reasons it would have helped him a lot). I explained it to the aisle person and asked if he would switch with me. He was very rude and told me to get lost. He sat down and fell asleep. I think I woke him on a 15 minute basis all the way to Miami. What an idiot.



I opt no on the device and say everyone has a right to stretch their legs, breathe, use the lavatories, whatever. If you don't want to be bothered, pick an inside seat.
