Reddit users weighed in with support for a man who says he told a tall passenger on board a flight that he should have bought additional legroom from the airline due to his size.
"Me , I am 5'10, and I check into my flight the night before," the Redditor wrote in a post called"AITA for telling a 6'8" giant to upgrade his seating?"
But the man sitting in the middle seat behind him said he was"too big and the chair reclines into his legs." "This man seated in the middle is extraordinarily tall, and seated in the middle, so his knees extend into the space of both the aisle and window seats," the Reddit user wrote. The man replied that normally, flight attendants upgraded his seating to a location with more legroom — but for this flight, they did not.
"I respond by saying, ‘I’m not being selfish, I'm fine with having less space so you can be more comfortable, but pointing out that you're the selfish one for not taking responsibility for others space and depending on flight attendants to put you in better seats.'"The two passenger then"exchanged fake smiles" — and sarcasm.
The man did not pay the 20 euro upgrade for additional legroom on his 90-minute flight, according to the Reddit post.
