‘There was a guy behind us sitting in the hallway and a father walks up with his two sons and says, “hey, man, mand the children have a middle and a window, and I have this hallway on the other side.
‘”Would you mind just swapping me from hallway to hallway?”
“The guy said, ‘It’s no big deal. Happy to change. Just to clarify, are you in this aisle seat?”‘
The content creator continued the exchange in which the father paused, but clarified that it was indeed the aisle seat he was talking about.
‘The type he wake up, changes, goes to the hallway. Dad sits in the hallway with his two children.
‘The girl approaches the boy she exchanged about 10 seconds later. She says, “Hey, I’m the one.” aisle seat here.”‘
The man explained to the woman how he had just swapped aisle seats with the father of two, while the doting father ignored the conversation and continued looking at his phone.
His video was soon flooded with comments from viewers who were surprised by the maneuver and shared their own thoughts about the seat swap.
But without further clarification, the man who had given up his seat has to move again.
‘He gets up and moves towards the middle. The dad was in the middle seat and I think he knew it…
‘The guy didn’t say a word. He couldn’t have been nicer.
Alex concluded: ‘I get it. I totally understand. One dad wanted to sit with his kids, but I think you have to tell the guy, “Hey, man, I’m from the middle. I need a solid here because I need to stay with my kids.”
“But you can’t say you are the hall.”

Another commented: ‘That’s why my answer is no! Every damn time.’
A third person added: “I put the headphones on and I don’t recognize a person once I sit down.” Annoy someone else hahaha.’
Someone else shared: ‘Of course not. He would have told him: “Sorry mate, you have to change back since you lied to me.”
