Psychotic that these top comments are telling you you’re wrong, 99% of the time someone would be happy to give up the middle seat
everyone shitting on this method is kind of dumb. OF COURSE there is the possibility that the middle person doesn’t want to switch, but that is improbable, and again it is a known risk.
If I got stuck in the middle, I would be very happy to take an aisle seat, as would most people (or maybe they like the window)
I thought I’m the only one 😅
But some airlines won’t let you do that, I
Mean some booking apps
People in the comments are overreacting. It’s a good tactic and if the flight is fully booked and you have someone in the middle just be polite and ask if they’d prefer the aisle or window seat and in the odd scenario where they want to stay in the middle, which is highly unlikely, then you get to enjoy some alone time on the plane.
Is that really the worst case scenario? Or is it that an obese man sits in between and doesn’t change seats?
There are never any empty seats.
Unless you fly on the airline I work for… where flights are almost always oversold 😂😂
Just buy your own plane
So don’t do the thing, so you can do the thing?
Buy 3 seats.
You can have my window seat! 500 bucks should cover it 😂
If it's 2 handsome men, sorry – but I'll keep the middle seat. 🤭
I just buy two seats lol
So now everyone will do this and it won’t work 🙄
I don't give up my preselected seat ever
FFG is a Scorpio!
So this life hack is to NOT book a middle seat so that you can later try and get somebody to give you their middle seat. 😵💫
I would much sooner sit with a stranger in between my friend and myself, rather than sit in the middle seat anyway.
How about just book all three seats problem solved
So now I understand why sometimes I am in between a couple when I travel on my own. I thought it was an issue with the booking system.
Worst case scenario you will miss my ass for my middle seat. I paid for it and I’m using it!
Nobody is obligated to switch seats. Flights are always full or close to it.
I like how you ignore the vegetable in the white house
Oh boy I feel like I have to refuse one soon
The number of times I got the middle seat & the people on both sides of me were together but didn’t wanna swap with me😞🫠
What's wrong with sitting next to a stranger?
Watch airlines install auto seat reassigning system just to mess with everyone 😂
Omg…just to get more space? -_- Good lord, just book your seats next to each other.
Why don't you just book two seats side by side in the first place?
?? Nah, airplanes are almost always overbooked
