How do you handle a seat change request? {Archive}
The other day I was on EWR-HKG and I had my favorite seat 8D on a 772 2-2-2 config. Bulkhead with direct aisle access. I had booked my flight early when the cabin was wide open. Truthfully 48 hours before he flight much of the cabin was open with people who didn’t pre assign seats
so I’m in the cabin all settled in and have my pre boarding drink when the FA came over and nicely asked me to move to a non bulkhead window to let 2 people sit together.
i politely declined and I went back on my business. I got dirty looks from my seat mate for 16 hours.
felt like a jerk but that’s a big ask for 16 hour flight...
