Please Be Honest And Tell Me What You Would Do…

So there I am in Mexico with my partner A.S. when all of a sudden my name is announced over the loud speaker, “Merrill Dubrow, will you please report to the American Airlines counter?”

I walk up to the counter and the customer service representative says she has one 1st class seat available. I was next on her list so she asked if I wanted it. When I said I was traveling with someone and that wouldn’t work, she said, “Ok” and proceeded to call the next name on the list. When I got back to where A.S. was sitting, I explained what had happened and the end result. We quickly got into a philosophical discussion of what would most people do.

Would that person split up and take the 1st class seat?

So what I would like you to do is answer these 6 quick questions.
CLICK HERE to start the quiz.

“I will tell you this story. My sister had the opportunity once to go to Paris with several of her co-workers after the company she worked for was bought by a French company. She was the most junior person on the trip, but her job required a lot of travel so she had LOTS of frequent flyer miles and she was able to use them to upgrade to first class. The rest of the more senior staff sat in coach. Apparently they brought it up numerous times and I think the comments made her uncomfortable, even though I’m sure it was (probably) just friendly teasing.“

“My son and his girlfriend flew to Hawaii to meet Lisa and I a couple of years ago. I screwed up Zack’s ticket and had it on the wrong day. The only seat available at the last minute was a first class ticket for which I paid full price. I gave Zack three options (1) negotiate with AA to see if they would upgrade his girlfriend,(2)see if another passenger wanted to pay something for the upgraded ticket, (3)pick out a passenger that might really appreciate the updgrade and give them the ticket. He would not want to be separated from his girlfriend for 7 hours but the other options were 4)offer the ticket to his girlfriend and then switch seats with the person next to her, 5)take the first class seat and eat, and the offer the seat to the person next to his girlfriend. It worked out great – AA upgraded his girlfriend to first class with him. “
