As long as someone doesn’t recline their seat and crushes my knees, and as long as someone doesn’t put their feet near my face, I usually don’t mind where someone sits on a plane. But boy, the guy in this video was super pissed that a woman who was originally sitting in coach, decided to upgrade herself to first class.
According to the NY Post, the woman attempted to upgrade her seat three times. And that was three times too many for a flier in first class who had enough of her nonsense. Another passenger, Bruce Lam, was able to film the man go bonkers on the woman. Check out the video that was captured on an AirAsia flight from Kuala Lumpur to Hong Kong.
According to Lam, he and his pals were seated in the airline’s X Premium Class seats, which are similar to business class, when the woman popped out from economy and headed towards first class.

A flight attendant tried to boot her from the seats, telling her they cost extra and she could book them on her next flight if she wanted. An argument ensued, but the woman eventually returned to her seat — only to reappear after takeoff. She was kicked out again after bickering with the attendant but returned a third time.
“A few minutes later, the woman returned to the seats behind me again for the third time. She lay down and started playing with her phone,” Lam wrote in the Facebook post. “The stewardess told her that it wouldn’t be fair to other passengers if she could ‘upgrade’ her seat by herself, while others could not.”
That’s when the woman became irate and began yelling at the flight attendant. Having suffered long enough, another passenger stood up and yelled in Cantonese, “Just return to your seat. Once, twice, thrice, they asked you. Have you no shame?”

As you can see, the woman eventually has to head back to her original seat, but not before being shamed. Now her face is all over the internet. Too bad for her, if she had flown with United Airlines someone would have been dragged off the plane simply so she could take their seat in first class.
