Something about this viral “holiday gift” aboard American Airlines and unexpected upgrade to first class felt a little too perfectly timed to be genuine…but maybe I’m just too jaded?
If you watch the video below, it appears that another passenger overheard what happened and was so moved by the man’s kindness that he gave up his first class seat (the gifting man was seated in the very last row of the aircraft). Talk about a seat swap…
On its face, it seems like a generous act…a nice holiday flourish at 35,000 feet with a cool twist. But I’m not buying it.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on Live and Let's Fly.
