I was flying First Class from London to JFK. I boarded early and found a woman in my exact seat, 2A. She was fully settled in, sipping pre-departure champagne, with a premium designer bag occupying the footwell.
I said, "Hi there, I think you might be in 2A."
She glanced up, looked down her nose at me, and said, "The gate agent explicitly swapped my seat because my entertainment screen in 5D was broken. I am a Platinum Elite member. You can go take 5D, it's fine."
I looked at my airline app. No changes. I called the flight attendant over. The flight attendant asked to see the woman’s boarding pass. The woman handed it over with an attitude, saying, "Your colleague at the gate handled it. Check your system."
It is with profound sadness that we share the passing of Bobby Weir. We send him off the way he sent so many of us on our way: with a farewell that isn’t an ending, but a blessing. A reward for a life worth livin'. https://t.co/2qdBbh80v1
