[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]I will switch for aisle to aisle seat, or reluctantly aisle to window. But, I am not switching my aisle seat for a middle seat. [/quote]

Seriously?  You wouldn't switch to help a family with young kids that would otherwise be stranded for hours due to their flight being cancelled through no fault of their own?  Do what you want, but I find that really gross.  Of course parents should not take advantage of other passengers by intentionally scheduling flights where they can't sit with their kids, but circumstances come up beyond people's control, and for me, helping a family with young kids out is more important than the comfort of an aisle or window seat.

Yes, I am serious.  I don't know their circumstances, and since I am neither majician or mind reader, i will not switch my seat and sit in the middle.  I find that parents who feel they are entitled to my pre-planned seat gross.  BTW--I also have a child under the age of seven.  As a family we travel extensively.  The kid has travelled internationally and domestically.  I have yet to ask someone to switch their seats.  Perhaps the reason why is because I pre-planned and did not feel entitled to another's seat.  [/quote]

If you have never experience an issue with a flight, then you have not traveled extensively with your child.  Sorry, but you just haven't.[/quote]
