[quote=Anonymous]I've had good luck and bad luck. The one time I really couldn't get anyone to switch I went and told the flight attendant and the pilot, who happened to be standing there, we needed to get off the plane and have our luggage taken off, as my 5-year old was petrified of sitting alone and I very calmly shared what my experience as a mother to this child told me would happen if we tried to force him to sit alone in a middle seat. The flight attendant, who up to that point had taken a "your problem, not mine" attitude, was quickly moved to action. It helped I think that the pilot was appalled to learn that a scared 5-year old was expected to sit alone (in between two large men, one of whom was already obviously drunk or high or both). Now I simply won't take a plane if I can't book two seats together at the time of booking. This makes Southwest a no-go from the start. While my family is by no means rich, I am fortunate that I can opt to pay more for this. [/quote]
