Of course, the last time I did that I ended up between two people who did not want to move, yet still wanted to talk to each other the entire flight with me in the middle.
- tptacek 9y agoYou did this, and the agent agreed? What airline?
- acchow 9y agoWhy do airlines expose the last names?
- lorenzhs 9y agoWell they're not going to ask "Is the seat between Mr and Mrs Jones all right?", there's no need to expose the name to you when you ask to be placed between people with the same last name.
- BryantD 9y agoThat's still data I'd rather they don't share -- no need for anyone to know that I'm married to the person in the aisle seat. Minimize exposure.
- SamReidHughes 9y agoExposure to what?
- imgabe 9y agoBefore the middle seat person gets on the plane, they only know that there are two people there who are married, not that you specifically are one of them. The existence of married people is not a secret. After you're on the plane, it would probably become apparent that you and your spouse are married, or at least related in some way to each other. If you have some game with your spouse where you pretend to not know each other in public or something, I guess maybe it could ruin that, but otherwise I'm not sure what the harm is.
- SamReidHughes 9y agoThat's when you join in on the conversation.
- pavel_lishin 9y agoWhich sounds like a fun way to punish them, or coerce them into switching with you, but as an introvert, I think I'd rather just put on my headphones.
