A: Get an aisle seat
If someone in a middle seat asked to switch with you so they could sit next to their friend, would you do it? According to a new survey, a very generous 45% of us would say yes.
Another 35% said they’d move as long as they DIDN’T have to sit in the middle between two people. 11% would only move if they got an aisle seat, and 5% would only do it for a window seat. Just 1% said they’d give a hard NO, and wouldn’t move for any reason.
The survey also asked what you’d do if someone cut in line in front of you while you were boarding. 57% said they’d ignore it, or wouldn’t care. 35% said they’d confront the person about it, and 8% would tell a staff member.
