Plane journeys can often be unpleasant, sometimes due to the seat you end up in.
Some people ask to swap seats, sometimes there's someone in your seat by accident, and occasionally you'll encounter people who will steal your seat. One woman was left confused after boarding a plane with her family to find another family was in their seats, reports the Mirror.
While she said she was irritated, they sat in the empty seats without making a fuss. However, 'karma instantly hit' when the people who had stolen their seats encountered an issue.

The mum took to Reddit's 'Stolen Seats' forum to tell all. She explained that the plane was completely sold out, and despite booking seats, when she got on she found a family were sat in her reserved spaces.
The woman wrote: "We get on to find that a family is in our seats. The parents won't even look up at us. The teen daughter mumbles that she got there first and just sat down.
"They were in our A-B-C seats. They were supposed to be D-E-F. They were clearly not moving, and the seats were identical so we just sat in their D-E-F seats. Whatever, not worth worrying about.
"Well, until the mum who initially refused to even look at us leaned over to ask me if our USB and outlets were working. Yes, while I had headphones on.
"'Why yes, yes they are.' 'Oh my, are yours not?' 'None of them?' 'Isn't that a shame? Especially since we sat on the runway for a bit over an hour and it is a long flight. I imagine batteries are getting low.'
"Hello Karma."
"Outstanding", a Redditor wrote, whilst another said: "That's fantastic!"
Someone commented: "When traveling I always have two charged power packs in my personal bag. So not only did they steal seats they are not good at planning ahead for travelling!"
"I'm really curious why they decided to sit in identical seats across the aisle from their assigned seats. Whomp whomp to them, sweet karma", somebody giggled.
