[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I booked back in August. I can’t believe I didn’t select seats if it was available, so no idea why all 5 of us including an 8 year old are all seated apart. We tried to get seats together but plane was full. So when we boarded we asked someone to switch, but then the FA was upset about it. This was not United Basic, just standard economy which used to include seating together etc. what happened did they change planes and I lose my seat assignments— can you always select seats at booking I can’t see why I didn’t but it was six months ago…[/quote] Ok, you should have paid for seating together. Not right to expect others to trade who paid for their seats. Your 8 year old will be ok. Or, ask to be put on a different plane. Your failure to plan is not someone else's crisis.[/quote] Maybe you are okay leaving your children with random strangers in the dark. But we aren’t. Airlines shouldn’t require extra expense for basic safety of minors https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/delta-lawsuit-groping-sexual-assault-b2588536.html[/quote] I agree. And it’s not even just the very real risk of that type of thing, it’s also the risk of emergency. Who is responsible for helping the child to evacuate or even just putting on their oxygen mask, if the parents are rows away from the child? Kids that young aren’t allowed to fly unaccompanied due to the risk to the airline so I don’t see what’s different when you prevent the parent from taking responsibility for their own child by deliberately seating them apart.[/quote]
