Flightster Friday: Middle Seat Mayhem

I’ve been doing a lot of traveling on my time off recently. Usually, I’m not one to travel on my time off, I see enough of an airplane during the week that I don’t want to spend my time off on one. However, I’ve been offered some great opportunities in the last few weeks that I couldn’t pass up so traveling was a must.

I have to say: it’s been a while since I’ve traveled as a “regular passenger.” We [flight attendants] sometimes forget what it’s like for passengers, and trust me, I was reminded about the biggest downfall of travel (in my opinion) last week.

The middle seat. It’s horrible. I’m sorry you have to sit there. If I had my way every airline would be two by two seating. We’d be able to eliminate the awkwardness of sitting between two people for five hours and not knowing where to look or fearing falling asleep on someone’s shoulder (check out this post of mine a few weeks ago that aims to fix the sleeping problem: Have no fear the middle seat fix is here!).
