Flying is expensive, especially with a child. So when I purchased two seats—one for myself and one for my toddler—I naturally expected them to be available. Instead, I found a stranger occupying both, her body encroaching on the space I had paid for. I tried to reason with her, but she stubbornly refused to move. Frustrated, I called over a flight attendant, hoping for a swift resolution. What happened next wasn’t just unexpected—it sent ripples of shock through the entire plane.

As I boarded the plane and made my way down the aisle, I was met with an unexpected sight. A woman I didn’t recognize was sprawled across two seats—one of them being mine. Her large frame spilled over into the seat reserved for little Jacob. Summoning patience, I leaned in and said as politely as I could, “Excuse me, I believe these are our seats.” She cast a fleeting glance at the seat numbers, her indifference palpable. Frustration began to rise within me, but I took a deep breath, determined to stay calm.
