I wonder why all sorts of drama involving various entitled people often unfolds on transport, and specifically on airplanes? Perhaps being in a confined space with many other people somehow affects a person’s subconscious, revealing their darkest edges; who knows? But the fact is that plane drama is a pretty common thing.
For example, here’s a story fromthe user u/Dramatic_Safe_4257in the AITAH Reddit community, who specifically bought the third seat in the row they were sitting in with their friend – and still encountered an entitled passenger who wanted to sit there. However, let’s talk about everything in order…
More info:Reddit
The author of the post recently had a 3-hour flight with their friend

The author’s friend has severe social anxiety and was flying for the very first time, so they bought out the third seat in their row

However, right after the takeoff, some random guy approached and attempted to sit there

The author refused him politely and explained the reasons for their refusal

Anyway, the guy got offended and continued mocking the author with his friends throughout the whole flight
In fact, there were two options – to buy tickets in business class or just buy out the third seat in a row in economy class. However, after calculating the price, the cost of three tickets in economy class was still much less. So the friends did just that.
Moreover, throughout almost the entire flight, the dude stood in the aisle, talking loudly with his friends and occasionally throwing dirty looks at the author. And even when they got out of the aircraft, the passenger’s face, when he met eyes with the original poster, was so offended, as if the author had caused him severe mental shock with their refusal.
