An angry Delta Airlines customer took to social media to share his experience with the company, which he claims downgraded him from the seat he was assigned in order to accommodate another passenger's service animal.

Reddit user @ben_bob initially paid for a first-class seat, but was told by airline staff that his seat had to be downgraded because "something changed". After boarding the plane, the user realized that the reason he was removed from his premium seat was so that it could be given to the service dog of another passenger, reported Daily Dot.
