At the time, I didn't report this beyond trying to get the FA involved in making the jerk move back to his assigned seat (it was mommy, daddy, and older teen daughter), but in retrospect I wish I had made a big fuss so that the airline would revoke the jerk's nonrev privileges for his behavior.
How did you know it was non-rev?
