[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another mom who got NO help from the airline.  My kid was only 2 at the time.  I actually paid for the premium aisle seat, hoping it would be easier to trade for the middle seat next to my child's window..  Then the person who had the middle/aisle next to my kid's window did NOT want to switch because they would have to split up and they were a lovey-dovey couple.  I told him that I'd be three rows up, in the aisle seat and he could call me when she needed her diaper changed, and that, if her Elmo video ended, he could just hit replay and see if that kept her quiet.  The woman in the couple insisted they split up so that we could switch, and the man gave me a lot of dirty looks. 
This is why I like to fly Southwest.  The assigned seating, where the airline carves out all these seats and there's nothing available together for love or money, is really difficult when flying with kids. 
My suggestion is to beg or borrow ipads and let them play whatever videos they want, in case someone won't switch with you.[/quote]

I have been hard on OP in this thread.  But the flip side is that this guy is an incredible douchebag.  Any adult who refuses to switch because he wants to sit next to his adult companion is a dick.  [/quote]
