Ever had nightmare seatmates? Meet the newlyweds who turned my 14-hour flight into chaos. They treated the plane like their honeymoon suite, and when they crossed the line, I decided to teach them a lesson in etiquette.\n
I\u2019m Toby, 35, and I\u2019d just splurged on a premium economy seat for a long flight home. As soon as I settled in, the guy next to me, Dave, asked if I\u2019d switch seats with his wife, Lia. I politely refused, offering to switch for $1,000. He muttered that I\u2019d regret it. Spoiler alert: I didn\u2019t.\n
The couple\u2019s behavior quickly escalated. Dave started coughing uncontrollably, blasting movies without headphones, and spilling snacks. Lia then plopped onto his lap, making the whole situation worse. After an hour of their antics, I flagged down a flight attendant and loudly detailed their disruptive behavior.\n
The stewardess had them moved to economy for breaking rules, and I couldn\u2019t help but enjoy the sweet taste of victory. Later, they tried to bypass the seatbelt sign for a bathroom break, but I stopped them with a well-timed reminder of their earlier misbehavior.\n
In the end, Dave and Lia slunk back to their seats, and the rest of the flight was blissfully quiet. Karma had struck, and I was more than ready to reunite with my family, leaving the lovebirds behind with their lesson learned.\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
