Flying is, for the most part, a pretty joyous experience.
That’s exactly what happened to one traveler on a recent Delta flight.

But how he reacted to that bad-behaving seatmate is getting everyone talking.
I’m tall and heavy, but I fit comfortably between the seats."
He added, “I was very unlucky that I got the middle seat on an Airbus A321.
I don’t want to sit next to you.'
Yes, he later was sitting next to me.
As you’re able to expect, I was extremely upset and wasn’t sure how to react.
According to the Reddit user, this reaction didn’t seem to phase his seatmate.
I did this about three times.
Justice was served!”
But was he in the right?
According to the majority of Reddit commenters, yes.
“This is great.
Though a few were calling this out as equally nasty passenger behavior.
“And you’re trying to make it seem like you were the victim and somehow served justice?”
As for what etiquette pros think, it was indeed a little uncouth.
“Retaliation, even mild, means you no longer have the high road.”
I trust that’ll be the last of that for the remainder of this flight.'”
And truly, that would sting far more than being unable to change the channel.
What do you think?
