“As if i had no choice but to move”: Woman refused to switch plane seats

A woman, 23, who had meticulously planned a trip to San Francisco for a year, was thrilled when the airline upgraded her to first class due to her travel points. However, shortly after takeoff, a flight attendant asked her to switch seats with a 10-year-old boy from economy class, allowing him to sit with his family in first class.

The flight attendant explained, “The two parents and I were the only passengers who had been upgraded on the flight, and there were no additional first-class seats available.” She offered alternatives, including another complimentary upgrade or a full refund, but emphasized that the boy needed her seat because his parents had received upgrades without him.

The woman was upset as the upgrade was earned through her frequent flying, not a purchase. Despite the offer to move, she chose to stay in her seat. Although she observed the boy walking to his parents every hour and wasn’t bothered by the flight attendant, an elderly passenger criticized her for not letting the child sit with his family.

The woman wonders if she was in the wrong: “AITA for not giving up my seat?”
