I didn't pay for this seat but you should give it to me anyways

There is some pretext needed to this story. My brother is very tall. 6'5" tall. Whenever he and I go back east for vacation, we get aisle seats in Comfort+ for that oh so necessary few extra inches of legroom. It is the only seat he can fit in.We board fairly early and settle in very quickly. As the boarding process continues, a woman approaches him and asks him to switch seats with her. She explains that she wants to sit next to her husband, who is in the seat next to my brother, but she ended up being seated a few rows back. He says yes and goes back to her seat. He quickly realizes she failed to mention that she was seated in economy, which poses a huge problem as he cannot fit. He comes back and very kindly explains the problem and also explains that he paid extra for the Comfort+ for a reason. Her face completely changes color in anger as she starts lecturing him on how unfair it is that he won't give up his seat. He stands there unwavering until she goes back to the seat she did pay for and she sits back down comfortably in his seat. I mouth "what the hell?" to him and he laughs and shrugs his shoulders.She never asked a flight attendant for help in being seated next to her husband. I finally realized that they probably plotted to only buy one Comfort+ seat and rely on the kindness of a stranger for a free upgrade. via /r/ChoosingBeggars https://ift.tt/2PIZQff
