We already paid for first class and there were no seats available except for the middle.

You should have chosen a different flight to accommodate your medical needs. You are a jerk to make someone change the seat they booked and paid for, for your convenience.

You don't need to wee in 4 hours? You dehydrate yourself you get a blood clot. Peasant.

Especially when she has no idea what their medical needs are! People pay extra for a window seat for specific reasons. Very rarely in first class are those reasons just so they can see the clouds.

Also, in that configuration, a middle seat person doesn't have to move for anyone except themselves.

Also, wherever you are, you'd better hold it in if you don't want to move and go to the bathroom.

You don't sound mentally with it, OP.

Just not smart. The whole question and starting of this thread is pointless, so I'm guessing they don't fly much or have any experience flying first class since moving seats in this scenario was completely senseless.

We fly business or first all the time this is a new configuration for us and with the recent back injury from skiing we asked the agent chat what to do.

very good on you, relying on a chatbot on top of all your other idiot moves. Do you know how they're programmed? 🤣😂

Yes i am aware its a bot but you have to ask for a live agent, if you have flown recently this is the only way to get someone live to ask questions without waiting hours on the phone.

There is no cost difference for window seat on business or first class. Also the airline refunds seat changes like if you were downgraded to a lower class.

Okay I think I get it now. The doctor didn't realize they had an option for lie flat seats, so assumed the best option for a seat with little recline was a window seat where the person with back issues could lean against the fuselage. Lie flats are pretty uncommon for domestic planes. And the agent didn't understand the nuances of different seat configurations either- this type of detail is something agents often get wrong.

OP, call United and explain, and say you are fine with moving back to your original seats. The recline and lie flat option will meet the requirement to "off load pressure from the lower back" as per the doctors note.

Since OP flies business or first all the time you'd think she would have noticed they are lay flat seats. She's just dim.

This is why OP is a troll. Claiming to have experience flying in first/business but refusing to answer any questions about the ability to lie flat or inability to lean against the window.

OP’s comments on this thread track with being dumb enough to not have put together the doctor saying to get a window seat was rendered irrelevant by the first class ticket. Doesn’t seem like much going on in the brain box there.

So I think you are missing the point of my question, it wasn't to focus on the seat arrangement, it was to suggest how to respond to other people asking for my seat or switching back, is this something I have to do on my own, or is this the responsibility of the airlines? I have concluded that I don't have to give any background to anyone about switching seats, as they won't know I asked for the medical accommodation and refer to the ticket assignment. I've just seen a lot of angry and out of control people on tiktok lose their cool flying and freaking out but i guess if that happens I'll have the flight attendant deal with it.

It tracks that you believe Tik Tok is real life. No one is going to give your grief about your seats, OP. You didn't need to change seats, the doctor didn't realize what kind of seats are in first class, but now you have, it's still fine. You can go on living your excessively dumb and wealthy life. Pearls before swine, truly.

Wee is commonly used in certain parts of the English-speaking world. I use wee, because I lived as a child in the UK.

That's some serious BS from you.

No one will “ask for their seat back.” You’re worrying about nothing.

In that case your use of “peasant” is even more offensive, because in your moldering little country that clings the notion of its superiority due to its past murderous colonial glory, people still really believe in the class system.
