Had to change concourses and made it to the gate just as they were paging me for final call. Then the computer rejected my boarding pass and was given a new one without any explanation from the gate agent (I knew that it meant they had swapped my seat, but it would have been nice to be told)

Sat in my seat and the two women next to me called the flight attendant. Flight attendant disappears and comes back with a plastic carrier bag containing puke bags and paper towels.

The girl in the middle seat next to me started puking as soon as we pushed back and didn't stop until we landed in SEA.

It was a full flight so nowehere to move to.

Filed a complaint with DL for FA not warning me about the woman's sickness, got 5000 skymiles credited to my account.

If they had said something before we left the gate I would have gladly got off and waited overnight for another flight at my own expense, but apparently they would never ask someone if they wanted to get off the plane in an instance like that. I'm sure many people would rather get off the plane than sit next to someone puking for 5+ hours
