yeah, I've thought about that, but I do almost all WFBF for the MQDs and MQMs, and as we all know UG space is a crapshoot

I must have been fixated on the sticky floor or bags of coffee grounds.

Is it poor taste to suggest a thread where we change our M.O here to 'things that we should complain about but don't?'

Too boring?

Had a seat poacher in my aisle C+ seat from MHT to DTW on a small CRJ last week...

He feigned that he mixed up the seat letters, and then asked to get up so he could ask the FA to reseat him since he "couldn't sit" in a window seat (the flight was full).

He was fishing for me to swap with him. No way in hell, especially not with the attitude he had...

After a few minutes he came back and sat in his assigned window seat and was grumpy for the whole rest of the fight. Sheesh!

9/10 seating problems would be avoided if kettles bothered to assign their seats at booking. I see so many people who are shocked that they have terrible seats when they get their boarding passes, or go to board.

Seriously people, it's not that hard.

I had someone on an A320 in C+ today who claimed that A was an aisle seat. When that didn't work he said some airlines has A in the middle. asked him which one. After several times at the same question he thought Allegiant.

A is an aisle seat in D1 767's but then every seat is an aisle seat.

Stupid or skeemer?

Just stupid. He realized he was wrong and tried to justify his error.

The fact that that he was in C+ also makes it all them more less of a BSr.
