[quote=Anonymous]We travelled with family friends this year. We booked our seats together, because that is what we like to do, and they bought the cheapest seat possible. They ended up scattered all over the plane with their 11 year old, who had not flown since he was 4, by himself. Their son was not happy and the people sitting next to him or his parents didn't want to give up the window or aisle seats they had paid for. We always make sure that one of us is sitting with our child. He is a good kid and could handle sitting solo, he is 12 and has flown a good amount, but I wouldn't want to have him get sick or something and need to find us or inconvenience a stranger.

Airlines should allow people to book their seats together with only one seat upcharged. At the very least, it would stop the people who just buy the cheapest seats possible and hope that the people who did pay for the aisle or window seat are willing to swap so they don't have to sit next to the toddler or 5 year old on their own. But the desire to make as much money off of every seat is getting in the way of basic common sense.[/quote]
