Simple problems require simple solutions, and sometimes, that solution need not be any more complex than sitting on top of (or just beside) the problem.
Some background knowledge for those unacquainted: the airline mentioned in the story does not have predetermined seats, and seats are determined like a massive game of musical chairs and are based on who can get to the seats first. Honestly, we have no idea who thought these free-for-alls were a good idea. It’s crazy to think that something as serious as air travel can have a part of it be determined on a first-come-first-serve basis like this. The entire process of air travel is so orchestrated, organized, and meticulous, but if you fly this airline, the seating process becomes as organized as a kindergarten at recess. The entire process is just asking for the Thunderdome-style showdowns that we sometimes see in these seating arrangements. It’s almost like the owner of this airline-which-will-not-be-named has a stake in WorldStarHipHop or something…
