Furious plane passenger forced to move for mum with baby divides opinion over spare seat rant

An "exhausted" plane passenger was left furious after a mum interrupted his plans to enjoy a nap on the flight by forcing him to move seats. The man was travelling home after a month of backpacking with his pal when they discovered an empty seat at the end of their row, the Mirror reports.

The men were keen to get some sleep after an early start to catch their connecting flight and devised a plan to make the middle seat the spare and take turns lying down and stretching out a bit further to sleep. Unfortunately for them, a mother with a baby sitting a few rows in front had her own idea for the seat which they soon discovered after she asked them to move.

She had spotted the gap and asked the pals to move so she could have a "full seat for her baby" which the "visibly" disappointed male passenger agreed to but asked if she could wait a few hours while he had a rest. Initially, the mum had agreed to this but a short while later, she "charged" over and demanded they moved, the man explained in a Reddit post.
