Funny stories about people who have entitlement complexes are common, and they keep us constantly reminded that reality never quite measures up to our expectations. That being said, the story that follows is that of a bewildered traveler. An attempt is made by the Original Poster (OP) to travel from Toronto to Vancouver in business class when a woman approaches OP as she is going about her own business and begs to trade seats with her so that she and her spouse can sit together. OP initially consents as she believes the two are seated in business, but she quickly learns that the demanding wife is indeed in the economy and is essentially requesting a free upgrade at OP's expense.

Naturally, OP objected and made an effort to reason with the entitled couple; however, after multiple unsuccessful attempts, OP gave the flight attendants the authority to resolve the issue. Having said that, read the story below to find out more about the exchanges between OP and the entitled couple and their final assessment on whether or not they were able to persuade another couple to give up their business seats for free!
