Seat Stories

My laptop nearly cracked in half on a flight from Phoenix to Saint Louis. Although the screen didn’t break per say, there is still some permanent damage as the bottom of the screen seems to be detached from the glass of the screen. On July 28th I flew from San Francisco to Saint Louis on […]

On a Friday night I took a United flight from Boston to Chicago. I was sitting in an aisle seat with extended leg room when this 20ish woman asked if I would change seats with her so she could sit with her grandmother who was sitting in the middle seat. When I asked her where […]

I was on the 2nd leg of a trip back home, flying from Vienna to Washington D.C. I was already desperately tired after being in Armenia for a few weeks. It was daylight out for the duration of this flight, and I was looking forward to tilting my seat back a few inches in an […]

One of the worst flights I had ever been on started as one of the best flights. I was 8 ½ months pregnant, almost 6 weeks from my due date and had no choice but to fly from Frankfurt Germany to Sacramento CA. Yeah a long flight. All the gate agents/attendants were really nice and […]

I was flying to Los Angeles from St. Louis and the man in the seat next to me set up his laptop to do some work. He opened it up and started working, all of a sudden the seat in front of him reclined back and his laptop was stuck in the groove from the […]

On a flight from Paris to Cincinnati, I was in front of a woman who was kind of annoying. Periodically, she kept punching and kicking my seat. When I was just about to say something, she leaned forward and asked me to put my seat up straight for a moment because she had a CAT […]

“TOO BAD” FOR TOO TALL I flew Continental from Indianapolis, IN to Manchester England for spring break. I am a tall man, 6’5″ and simply sitting in the seat is a crunch with my long legs. Not only did the passenger in front of me lean his seat back all the way, he would constantly […]

My biggest issue of flying on these airlines. I hate nothing more then having my tray table out, working on my computer and the 400 hundred pound bald guy reclines his seat. Now you would think this rude over weight guy would slowly recline his seat but no! He uses all of his 400 pounds […]

Last April (2008) I flew from Calgary, AB, CA to Orlando, FL. I had purposely booked an aisle seat on the right side of the plane (A “C” seat) because of a recent elbow injury to my left elbow that I wanted to protect from passing drink carts. I should also mention that although I […]

I don’t fly very but it happens. But on a regular basis something amazingly happens to me and/or others. This flight was from Switzerland to USA. I thought I was lucky since I got a row with lots of legroom, but as soon as I tried to sleep like everyone else I noticed the passenger […]

June 14th, ’08, I flew back from DCA to STL in seat 24E. After we reached cruising altitude, the gentleman two rows in front me, and one seat to the left, reclined his seat. About a minute later the guy directly behind him (in the row in front of me), we’ll call him “D.B.,” starts […]

On a recent flight from Orlando to Rochester NY, the guy next to me continued to recline his seat, virtually crushing the legs of the guy behind him. He asked on 3 occasions to please put the seat up. Then a short time later while he (next to me) was snoring and breathing on me […]
