Who deserves the aisle seat while flying? The answer is the person who paid for it… usually. However, this anxious flyer got asked to give up their seat for a different one, and they weren't happy about how the interaction played out.
If you get anxious while flying, you're not alone. It's like an endurance test, with one stressful situation after another. First you have to book your trip, which is usually simple enough. But on the day of your flight, you have to get to the airport with several hours to spare. You'll need enough time to get through security with your luggage, which needs to weigh below a certain amount and not contain any liquids. Once you've passed all of that, you're in the airport, and you must locate the gate your plane is leaving from. After that, you can finally settle down to wait for your plane.
Planes are very safe, of course, but not everyone can relax onboard. This anxious flyer bought themself an aisle seat so that they'd have a little extra room, and would be able to get up and walk around easily. Another passenger also thought that sounded nice---but he didn't pay extra for that seat like the OP did.
