Q: 11% of people in a new survey said they would switch seats with someone on a plane if they could do this?

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.
