A PASSENGER has divided opinion after he refused to move seats so a family could sit next to each other during a flight.
The man, who had paid extra for a seat with legroom at the front of the plane, was asked to give up his seat for a family of six.
However, he refused to move for the 10-hour flight, and said he was given dirty looks for the rest of the flight.
He wrote on Reddit: “I paid a small amount extra for a seat that is in the front of the cabin – the coach seat that has a wall in front of it and extra legroom because it’s my second leg in a 20-hour total trip.
“Two adults, two children (8ish?) and two infants would like to fill this row of four.
“Two adults with one infant each in the bassinet in front of them, and the two middle-schoolers. The attendant asked if I would move to a similar seat so they could sit together.
“I said, ‘but I paid extra for this seat.’ The response was that the other seat was the exact same, so sure.”
However, he said that it was the same aisle seat and class but had no legroom, so he said he wouldn’t move, resulting in one of the kids sitting by themselves.
He then said that flight service was “abhorrent” and that staff forgot to serve him.
