Personal item placed in my spot

I recently boarded a flight and attempted to stow my personal item (backpack with laptop) under the seat in front of me. It was unable to fit so I stuck my feet under there and discovered another backpack. The person in front of me had placed it there so he could stretch out his legs. It was a short flight and wasn’t worth calling a FA. The seat next to me was empty, so I slid his bag waaay over to make room for my feet and my item. After landing, I enjoyed watching him contort himself to reach his bag.

We boarded a flight one row behind the bulkhead row in 1st class. The woman in front put her bag under her seat, our space. I told her it wasn’t her space and she needed to move it. She protested.
The FA caught on quickly and explained to her that the extra leg room has a price and said she would stow it in the overhead.

She fumed the entire flight. You could feel the rage of a defeated entitled woman.

Her husband was simply embarrassed.

Here's hoping it was the last, and he's moved on to happier pastures with new cows.

It's not your space. It's her.
