But I shouldn’t be moved from a bulkhead seat to accommodate a family who didn’t want to pay a fare that didn’t allow them to select seats in advance, especially if I have to otherwise pay extra for the bulkhead seat.
So if I paid selecting a bulkhead seat(I dont care for them because I like to have IFE right there) and I were moved in any situation, couldnt that be considered a downgrade and I would be due compensation? I am almost certain that Delta wouldnt see it that way, but in this case someone paid for BE and took my Y seat therefore I could see myself as being downgraded to BE because I no longer had an option in which seat I was in.
BE fair exist for the people who dont care as much about where they sit than they do saving the $50,$70,$120 or whatever and it allows Delta to fill the undesirable seats. When someone elses actions starts to effect my life, that is when I get irritated.
