“Throw Him Off, Dear. I’ve Upgraded to First Class, and That Is Now My Seat”: Entitled Woman Learns the Hard Way Not to Demand Other’s Seat After the Pilot Pulls a Clever Trick on Her

An entitled woman declared that a seat in the first class was hers. She claimed she was more important than another passenger, who shared his experience from the flight from Atlanta to Houston. The viral story was posted in Reddit’s Entitled people thread, though it could also be featured in the Petty revenge subreddit.

The original poster explains it all

The Reddit user gave background info, saying he was Airline Captain who traveled from Atlanta to Houston for work. He explained, “You could get a jump seat in the cockpit, but on this auspicious day, that was already taken. Pass riding wasn’t an option because there were no seats in coach and only one in First. Pass riders can be bumped for fare-paying passengers.”

The main characters

Humorously, the poster presented the story by saying that apart from him, the main characters were EW, or entitled woman, FA, or Flight Attendant, and CPT, or Captain of the flight.

The incident

A woman declared that the man was in her seat. He asked, “May I see your boarding pass?” The woman refused, and he added, “You’ll need to resolve this with the flight crew. I’m a passenger.”

The woman called the flight attendant, telling her, “Throw him off, dear. I’ve upgraded to First Class, and that is now my seat.” The EW was asked to show her boarding pass, yet again, she refused.

The entitled woman says she is more important than an employee

The FA asked the woman how she upgraded, but instead of answering any question, she merely stated, “I’m more important than an employee. Now get him out of my seat.” The man repeated he was just a passenger on that flight.

The Captain told the entitled woman, “I’ve just spoken with the Gate Agent. We certainly apologize for this awkward situation. The Agent has corrected your paperwork and has a voucher for future travel for you as well. Please fetch your new boarding pass and voucher, and we’ll be on our way.”

The woman thought she had won

The Captain told the woman to prepare the doors for departure once the EW stepped off the flight. The poster continued, “The doors close. The Captain returns to the cockpit, and as we push back from the gate, I can see the EW pounding on the glass next to the jetway.”

A common trick to avoid calling security

The Captain pulled a trick to get the woman off the flight, apparently a common airline strategy. Many wondered what had happened to her luggage, but the pilot expressed this was before 9\11. The rules were less strict, and the woman would get her bags once the plane went full circle.

Some knew about this trick

One Reddit user wrote, “I have heard of this strategy from this subreddit before. Evidently, it’s much easier and less disruptive to flight schedules to just kick them off that way than to bring airport security aboard the plane.” Another added, “There is a clause in the fine print that if you leave the plane after you have already boarded, you are giving up on the flight.”

Many joked about how the woman had just entered the first class

One comment said, “Did this lady think she could just claim she upgraded to first class and kick somebody out of their seat?” Another was in all caps lock, “I NOW DECLARE I’M SITTING IN 1ST CLASS!”

Some did not believe the original poster

Many Reddit users said this was fake. However, the original poster was a pilot in the 80s and the 90s, and others confirmed things were different back in the day.

Others felt sorry for those left behind

As one person wrote, “Poor gate agent.” Someone asked, “I wonder what happened to EW’s checked luggage….” More said, “I feel bad for the poor employees inside that had to deal with her YIKES.”

People thought the story was hilarious

As someone said, “I solemnly swear I am upgraded to first class!” as they mocked the EW. One concluded, “I mean, it worked. They got rid of her. In record time, too.”
