I like to sit in the aisle. It lets me put my legs out cause I’m sorta tall. So I booked my aisle seat. When I got to my seat, the middle seat and window seat were already occupied. The person in the window seat was a pregnant woman. She asked if we could swap seats because she gets motion sickness and would almost certainly need to rush to the bathroom.

Of course, I said no problem whatsoever. We all got up and moved into the aisle so she and I could switch.

Then middle seat man shouts (and I mean shouts) “I CALL WINDOW” and jumped in front of me to the window seat. Pregnant lady and I just sorta look at each other. I go to tell the guy that I want my seat but he had already put on headphones and put up his hoodie hood and was staring out the window.

Of course he also monopolized the arm rest the whole flight.

Seriously?

And yes, the woman was sick most of the flight. She did not make it to the bathroom. Thank goodness for vomit bags. (She did nothing wrong).
