A 50 year old white woman arrived at her seat
on a crowded flight and immediately didn't want the seat. The
seat was next to a black man. Disgusted, the woman immediately
summoned the flight attendant and demanded a new seat. The woman
said "I cannot sit here next to this black man." The
fight attendant said "Let me see if I can find another
seat." After checking, the flight attendant returned and
stated "Ma'am, there are no more seats in economy, but I
will check with the captain and see if there is something in
first class." About 10 minutes went by and the flight
attendant returned and stated "The captain has confirmed
that there are no more seats in economy, but there is one in
first class. It is our company policy to never move a person from
economy to first class, but being that it would be some sort of
scandal to force a person to sit next to an UNPLEASANT person,
the captain agreed to make the switch to first class."
Before the woman could say anything, the attendant gestured to
the black man and said, "Therefore sir, if you would so
kindly retrieve your personal items, we would like to move you to
the comfort of first class as the captain doesn't want you to
sit next to an unpleasant person." Passengers in the seats
nearby began to applause while some gave a standing
ovation.
