Poor Cam, flying coach... no leg room. Offers $1,500 to switch seats, gets rejected.

Cam was very professional about it.  A man his size in that tiny ass seat?  I’m 6’1 and I feel claustrophobic.

Must have been a last minute ticket purchase if Cam didn't grab a first class seat.

First world problems

I've had a couple of coworkers in the past who were 6'5"+. We traveled quite a bit in our roles, but not quite enough to rack up the really good perks. Upgrades were spotty at best opportunities. Always felt bad for them riding in coach. Those seats definitely aren't meant for people of that height.

The worst flight I ever had personally was a 6am red eye. I was in the very back row, middle seat, sanwiched between one guy who probably went about 350 and another guy who was about 6'6". fuging miserable.

Nono...  they were both coach seats...  he tried to get the seat by exit door because they have more room.

Guy has every right to say no.

I'm taking the 1500 for sure.

His new clothing line should have a t-shirt that says "I wasted thousands of dollars at a fashion show in France and all I got was a crappy seat on a plane".

He honestly probably offered too much.  When you tell someone their seat is worth that much, it makes them want to hold onto even more.  It's psychological.  $500 probably would have got it done.

I would've done it for a hug...

With a little imagination and an extra $1,500.00 in their wallet that passenger could've had a pretty good time in The City of Lights.

C'est la vie
