Dr. Sabra, known on TikTok as @lifewithdrsabra, revealed in a recent video that she was approached during a flight.
In her video, Dr. Sabra included overlay text that read:
“POV: Flight agent asks me if I want to give up my 1A seat so a child sits with their family.”
She even included a popular TikTok audio clip in the background, where someone says: “Girl, f*** them kids and f*** you too.”
The 1A seat, typically located in first class and at the very front of the plane, is highly sought after by travelers.
Dr. Sabra explained more in her video’s caption.
Her caption further read: “That’s a no from me dawg, would you have given up your seat?
The video has since gone viral, amassing 4.9 million views, with many viewers supporting her decision in the comments.
One viewer commented: “Why isn’t their first instinct to just switch the child with one of her parents so they could be with a guardian… lmao.”
A third chimed in: “People need to PLAN AHEAD. stop making your lack of planning everyone else’s problem.”
And a fourth speculated: “I wonder if some families actually on purpose buy the cheapest tickets, to plan to ask someone for their seat ‘I got kids, pls move.'”
“To clarify, the gate agent asked me, I asked to see the seat map, I didn’t like the alternative.
“They were kind and found a solution right away,” she explained.
What do you guys think about her decision not to swap her first-class seats with the 13-year-old? Share your thoughts.
