I said that if she hadn't told me to switch then the father or mother and the baby would be sitting back here and the other parent and the young boy would be up front with us.

A man swapped seats with a family after his wife urged him to – but she later regretted her decision when she ended up unable to sleep due to the baby crying constantly
When you’re planning on travelling via plane, you’ll likely want to book a specific seat so you can sit next to loved ones, in the window or aisle, and maybe you’ll even pay for an extra legroom seat to make the journey more comfortable for you. When you’re boarding the plane, you’ll likely feel a little smug with your choices, but this can all come crumbling down if someone asks you if they can swap seats with you – especially a family with young children.
