Why is there somebody sitting next to me?
I have a flight in J from ARN to DOH coming up shortly on the old fashioned 777 with the 2-2-2 seat layout.
The J cabin is about half full, but with availability remaining for all seat options from rows A to K. I had chosen 3A, and as OWE was hoping to have a free seat next to me. However, QR have decided to let somebody sit next to me, even though they could have sat in the next row back with a free window seat. So the question is:

You paid for one seat, and you are free to move to another row with an unoccupied seat next to you.
|
If the row behind has both seats free why don't you just move to it? Is row 3 any better than row 4?
|
They used to block the seat next to you unless the flight was full, they have stopped doing this for about a year.

Have you checked ExpertFlyer? Could it be they have blocked the seat next to you?

QR doesn't do seat blocking, not even to their own elites. Unless it's a published benefit, I don't see why they would block a seat next to you unless it's faulty or if you're Akbar Al Baker himself.

Maybe that person likes that seat. I choose seats based on MY preference, not what some ego ridden stranger thinks is the best seat for me.
When you get on the plane, maybe you can ask them. Hell, their secretary may have just chosen the seat that looks good for their boss that day |

You sound like a nice seat neighbour...
I'll load up on baked beans and pickled eggs and have a party |
Why do people park next to you in an empty car park or drive up behind you at a speed greater than yours on an empty multi-lane road and then proceed to follow you. Some people like company

just move.... I have on a few occasions...

WOW - don't even know how to respond to this elitist and entitled question. Do we really expect to have empty seats next to us now on airplanes? Prepare to be disappointed.
