Ever had seatmates from hell? Toby’s 14-hour flight quickly turned into a nightmare thanks to two newlyweds who thought the plane was their honeymoon suite. They asked him to switch seats so they could sit together, but Toby refused, having paid for the premium spot. “I paid extra for this seat because I really need the comfort,” he said.
The couple responded with passive-aggressive antics—loud coughing, blasting a movie without headphones, and even dropping crumbs on Toby. Eventually, they got too cozy, prompting Toby to involve the flight attendant. “We’ve had nonstop coughing, a movie blasting without headphones, a rain of snack crumbs,” he told her.
In the end, the flight attendant moved them to the back of the plane. “You were upgraded as a courtesy,” she said, “a courtesy you’ve misused.” Toby’s fellow passengers cheered him on, grateful for the newfound peace. “You did us all a favor,” one woman said. Toby’s lesson in airplane etiquette proved effective, ending the ordeal with sweet karma.
