Interesting, if this is a wind up then it's in very poor taste.
Surely the better option, if true, is to ask Virgin to move you to a bulkhead seat so that you don't have to bother anyone as you can step out of your seat.

Right, I’m bailing out of this thread, the OP is doing a great job of pushing everyone’s button, but I’ve read the third seat sleeping pill story before, which sealed it for me.
Others can keep on posting but I’ve better things to do. Bye bye |

OP has been on line yesterday evening and today and has clearly chosen not to reply so maybe it not as important as the I initial posts inferred.
Hope the flight goes well and you have a good holiday OP. |

The bottom line is that the OP and their partner booked 2 seats together in a row of 3 hoping they get the row to themselves.
They have done no different to millions of other couples, family, friends etc. every year... me included, many times. We all hope nobody books that aisle seat. Their fears of flying and medical condition is pretty much an irrelevance. They want a row of seats to themselves, don't want to move out of the bubble and don't want kids sat near them... I'm not knocking it... it sounds great. |

Just a quick point. With crohn's or ulcerative colitis you can end up going the toilet every five minutes it's not unusual during a flare up. It's not the trots it's a bowel disease, its usually blood and mucus. But I would hope the OP would be receiving treatment that would mean that this isnt an every day occurrence, as he would be extremely dehydrated and anaemic. I'm not sure I could travel during a full flare up.

As above, I've definitely read about the sleeping pill story before -maybe even on here.
I just don't get how Virgin would discuss anyone's personal business with another passenger, I don't even think an airline would go to the bother of phoning another passenger and asking them to move. And as for taking a sleeping pill on a day flight, that's downright dangerous. Why on earth would anyone do that? OP, it was a nice thought that you would have a half empty, quiet flight without children, but I'm afraid that's not how commercial airlines like to do business. That's called a "private jet".

Recommend you read OPs other threads, make your own minds up, and then draw this one to a close. I’ve wasted more time than I care to admit reading this.

Hello Neil
We don't normally post comments but felt that it was good to add some support and perspective. Firstly I'm really glad that you were able to get past the ESTA issue; I know that you were worried that your previous conviction for fraud might be a problem. These travel concerns are minor issues compared to what you have overcome, having been diagnosed with and beaten cancer a couple of years ago. Regarding the Crohn's disease, going without food for 9 hours might help to control it but as a fellow epileptic myself it would not be good for your epilepsy. or indeed for those cluster headaches. Maybe you can get the exit row seats? Surely they would have been a better option for you anyway, given your 38 inch legs. You've had some great advice from people on this site. Hope everything works out for you both and you have a fantastic holiday. Steven |
