i had about an hour or so before we were due to board.
i had some coffee, stole some breakfast and then got myself ready to board. i saw the seat map was wide open and although i tried to get myself an exit row, the gate agent was not in the mood for being helpful. so i took at least a row to myself, nice try lousy gate agent!
we boarded and by the time i had looked through my bag to find something, they had gone from zone 1 to zone 2 and with only 1 other person in that zone other than me, i had barely touched the walk
