Honeymooners Tried to Make My Flight Hell as Revenge – I Brought Them Back to Earth
Ever had seatmates from hell? On my recent 14-hour flight, I encountered newlyweds who turned the trip into a nightmare, thinking the plane was their honeymoon suite. I had to take matters into my own hands to deliver an unforgettable lesson in airplane etiquette.
I’m Toby, 35, and was eager to see my wife and kid after a long overseas trip. I’d splurged on a premium economy seat, but my peace was shattered when Dave, my seatmate, asked me to switch seats with his wife, Lia, who was in economy.
I declined politely, explaining I’d paid extra for comfort. Dave, visibly annoyed, muttered, “You’ll regret this.”
From there, the antics began: loud coughing fits, blasting a movie without headphones, and showering me with snack crumbs. Then Lia joined him, sitting on his lap, turning our row into their personal suite.
I flagged down a flight attendant and explained the situation. She reminded the couple of airline rules and safety regulations. Dave and Lia were ultimately moved to the back of the plane due to their disruptive behavior.
The rest of the flight was peaceful, and I could finally relax. As we landed, I couldn’t resist a parting shot: “Hope you guys learned something today. Enjoy your honeymoon!” They kept their heads down, and I walked off the plane, feeling victorious.
