Just saw that on my flight!
I also heard someone asking the lady at boarding, if there's a bathroom on the plane🤣
A teenager sitting next to me asked her mother if there was a bathroom on board.

I was in  United flight and the flight attendant didn't let someone change into the empty exit row because it's a premium seat.
how did they know it wasn't his seat? Did he ask to sit there?
When I buy a basic ticket, I always make sure to be the last to board and then self upgrade...

Happened to me a couple of times, back when I flew UA domestically.

If it was WN, I would get the humor.

Improper English on DDF can lead to disastrous results.

This guy is definitely woke and on a power trip. Completely out of line.
I just flew with NK IAH→EWR on Wednesday. The flight crew was very courteous and professional. I kindly asked if I can be reseated to an empty exit row and the reseated me once everyone took their seats.

Its very much hit or miss, but generally they are worse then other.

IMHO the big front seat is well worth the "spirit" many times.

I've never had a negative experience flying spirit.
I feel like maybe most negative experience that people have is because of their unpreparedness. To play the game you have to know the rules.
From a business prospective, I agree with their model.
