These lovebirds won’t be flying as a flock.
It’s too bad when a recently wedded twosome can’t sit side-by-side during their honeymoon flight.
But an unsympathetic passenger — who refused to swap his alternative seat for the bride’s low-fair chair — claims her “prick” groom is really responsible.
“I used to be flying from Melbourne to Dubai,” explained a Redditor within the ever-trendy “Am I The A—hole,” community thread. “I paid for a premium economy seat since it is a 14-hour flight and I need to be comfortable.”
But, because of the nagging newlywed, the trip quickly became uncomfortable.
“The person in the following seat had been upgraded and so they asked if I could switch seat with their wife as they’d just gotten married and were on their honeymoon,” added the author.
“I congratulated him on his nuptials and asked where his wife was sitting,” recalled the person. “He pointed towards the back of the plane — in economy.”
“I declined to modify seats.”
The unflinching flyer is the variety of trippers who’ve said “No” to mile-high seat-switching.
Be they brides and grooms, travel buds or families with young children, folks of the not-so-friendly skies are virally rejecting heartfelt requests for exchanges — irrespective of the circumstances.
In January, a plus-size sightseer, who’d purchased herself an additional seat for roominess, rebuffed a single mom’s pleas that she hand over the unoccupied spot to her 18-month-old son.
“I said, ‘No,’ recounted the traveler in social media post. “I wanted the seats that I paid for.”
A separate jet-setter, who caught a 14-hour flight from Asia at the highest of the yr, garnered high praise from virtual supporters after refusing to relinquish a spacious exit-row seat to a pregnant woman.
“I don’t feel extremely bad [about] my decision,” said the flyer in an internet confessional, “But possibly I’m fallacious.”
However the Reddit user who denied his seat to the honeymooners didn’t feel remorseful. In actual fact, he’d even proposed a good deal to the groom.
“I offered to modify if he paid the difference between the seats,” said the person. “It’s a goodly amount. I had been lucky to get mine at a good price.”
“It could only have cost him [$675.00].”
But, alas, the brand new hubby wasn’t buying it.
“He said that they were on a budget for his or her honeymoon,” the guy wrote. “I congratulated once more and put in my earbuds.”
“He muttered that I used to be an a- -hole,” remembered the flyer. “I said he was a prick for taking the upgrade as a substitute of either sitting together with his wife or giving it to her.”
And his digital defenders agreed.
“[You’re not the a- -hole],” assured a community member. “If he really wanted to sit down together with his wife I’m sure the person sitting beside her would have loved an upgrade to premium economy.”
“Sounds scammy or slimy,” wrote cynical spectator, casting aspersions on the suspicious couple.
“I just got here back from my honeymoon,” said a recent bride. “If my husband had ditched me to take an upgrade it could have been a really, very bad time for him!.”
