Flight passenger's awkward seat assignment has travelers sounding off

An air traveler was assigned a less-than-ideal seat on a recent flight, prompting him to share the experience online.

On the "r/delta" forum, the passenger posted, "My seat put me halfway into the aisle," along with a photo.

In the photo, the traveler shows half of his seat stationed outside the cabin row.

Fox News Digital reached out to the user for comment.

The post drew more than 800 comments with users sharing similar experiences.

"RIP left knee," another person wrote.

"I was in that seat this past weekend, and managed to avoid getting my knee bashed or my shoulder or head hit until, I kid you not, the very last person who managed to swing her large shoulder bag into me as she turned to ask the flight attendant a question," said one flyer.

"But you'll be a step ahead of everyone else when the captain turns off the seatbelt sign," one user joked.

The user responded, saying, "True. I actually stood up a few times during the flight to stretch and could basically remain in my seat area which was nice."

"My recommendation for travelers stuck in these types of seats is to bring an eye mask and possibly also some reading material or other entertainment options to keep them distracted from what's undoubtedly an awkward experience," Griff said.

The video, which showed the woman looking uncomfortable as she stared out into the crowd, reached 15 million views.
