Funny story. Happened on a flight to Abu Dhabi from Chicago. My wife and I were traveling with our kids who were toddlers then. We booked 3 seats of middle row but couldn’t get the 4th seat so were hoping and praying whoever had the 4th seat would be kind enough to swap. But to our surprise, the row was pre-occupied with a couple who we could see giggling and playful as we walked towards the seats. As soon as they saw us, a look of sadness dawned on them. Almost as if on cue. 1/n
