If it were me I would negotiate with the Flight Attendant if this guy refuses to leave first of all give me the entire first class service meal( I would ask her to give me a choice before Mr. 2A as I did not plan on not eating) and everything, unlimited alcoholic beverages etc, and to send a note to Headquarters so that I can get a confirmed upgrade on my next flight with Delta without any restrictions and possibly some bonus miles.


Good for you for keeping your cool.

Yeah, report back letting us know how that worked out :)

Nice! Were you on 234 perhaps? If yes, I thought I saw something glowing next to me - must have been your karma.:D (Got op-upped into 5G on that flight)

OTOH, if I were Mr.2A and felt I had the seat rightfully, I would have probably put up a fuss, too (probably wouldn't have gone the DYKWIA route with DM and all).

Another +1 ^

I think there should be a thread about class acts to go with the don't you know who I am one.

My theory:

Mr 2a was always in row 11, but he was Roman.

I applaud the motivation to take the high road (if high road and coach belong in the same sentence) but nice actions by the 99% embolden the 1% who act up to get their way. And then get their way. Didn't work when mine were toddlers, shouldn't work once they are big boys.
