Angry Passenger Attacks Seatmate

August 26, 2012

in Passenger Stories

As I am getting on my long flight from Salt Lake City to NYC, a middle aged fat lady is seated next to me. I put my things in overhead bins and nicely say excuse me to climb over her. My seat was in the middle and hers was by the aisle. As I am about to climb over she screams and tells me no. “Excuse me?” I said as confused as I ever was. She tells me that I supposedly bumped into her walking on the plane and I was a “rude little bitch” that she refuses to sit by. I laugh and say, “Well lady you don’t have much of a choice.”

As I continue to climb over her she swings at me! Like full on swing to the face. Luckily she was so fat that it was slow motion and I was able to duck it. Worst part is the flight attendant says she cannot change seats because it would be too much of an inconvienence. I was forced to sit next to her the whole way to NYC.

Please tell us what happened?!?! your story started good but has an empty ending. the fat thinks that they deserve special treatment on aircraft and I'm sick of it. I wish air travel from the 80s was reinstated where flying was an art, people dressed nice and tickets were expensive enough to keep undesirables off the plane.

Naturally, I prefer longer stories over two paragraph tweets.

Just tell the flight attendant that the flight will be delayed then while you have the police come to arrest the "lady". She assaulted you.

basically what she was trying to tell you is that give her a minute she would get up and let you in don't "crawl" over people that is very rude say excuse me i'm there may i and they'll get up while her reaction is over the top and unjustifiable it was provoked due to your lack of courtesy kinda like when people get mad at the first class flight attendant that is trying to do a bevarge service during boarding and instead of waiting for the FA to get back up to the galley they walk right up behind the FA and get mad when the FA has to move past them but the rude people are actually the impatient ones that can't be bothered to wait one minute to get on and to their seat. Irregardless that reaction is never OK but use a little common courtsey cause out there you never know when someone might flight their friggin lid on you now days!
