A woman who refused to give up her plane seat for a baby has shared how the furious mother gave her an attitude the entire five-hour journey.

Michelle, who goes under the username @michelleag12 on TikTok, explained that she and her husband were on the way to their honeymoon.

“We had assigned seats and it was a booked flight and unfortunately we didn’t get to sit next to each other,” she said.

Michelle said she was in the window seat while her husband sat in the row in front of her, so they were still close to each other.

“So as we’re boarding, this couple gets on and they have a baby with them,” she went on, adding that the mother asked her if she could take the seat so her baby could sit there.

“Usually for babies that young you don’t have to pay for a seat for them, they can just sit in your lap, but she wanted the baby to have my seat so she wouldn’t have to carry him for five hours.”

Even though she felt bad, Michelle said she did not want to give up her seat as she didn’t want to move away from her husband, who was just in front of her.

Still, she stood up to find free seats but the only ones available were already booked and paid for by another passenger who wanted to sit on his own. She had no choice but to go back to her seat.

“The mother was mad. She did not want to move her baby and I had to call a flight attendant over and tell her what was going on. The flight attendant told her she had to move her stuff because it was in my seat.”

“And for the next five hours, I just had to deal with them sitting right next to me, being so upset at me for not sitting somewhere else, and giving me an attitude for five hours,” Michelle continued.

“If they had wanted a seat for the baby, they should’ve paid for it, and I was nice enough to go check for another seat and there wasn’t any so at the end of the day I feel like it wasn’t my fault.”

People on TikTok flooded the comments section and praised her for her decision, with one person writing: “You did more than enough! I don’t know why some people feel so entitled.”

Another said: “Lack of preparation on her part should not be your problem.”
