Yes we were in E+ and the row she moved to was also E+.
The FA brought someone forward right after take off and sat him in that row to insure that my wife did not have the row. She asked him if he asked to be moved and he said no "the FA came back where he was sitting in E- and told him she had a better seat for him.
So actually..she moved someone from E- to E+ to show her authority (I guess).
I cannot guess why the reaction from the FA..it was immediate. It probably was because my wife asked why she had to move and the FA took that as a question to her "authority". The FA's in question looked to be older than my wife and should have been retired years ago. The FA's who actually served our original side of the plane were younger and very pleasant. They may have heard the story and was afraid that my wife was going to jump up and destroy the cart or something.


DroopyUA: Thanks for the address. That is what I was looking for.
