Having some extra room on a flight can make all the difference. But what if we tell you that you could get more than some? All you need to do is try one controversial flight hack from TikTok.
The hack, which has become viral in recent years, works for people who travel in pairs. It is highly risky because it can cause some uncomfortable situations, but when it works, it will give you and your travel companion an entire row for yourself.
Middle Seat Hack
In its most basic iteration, the hack requires you to book a window seat and an aisle seat while leaving the middle seat empty. The idea is that no one will want to book a middle seat willingly, leaving it empty. After that, you only have to hope that the flight isn’t full.
If it works, the hack will result in a level of comfort that is only similar to the first-class experience. And we are not exaggerating.
Of course, there is also a good chance that you could also end up with a stranger occupying the middle seat. In this case, you can simply offer them to switch, and they will most likely say yes. If not, you’re a little stuck. But it’s worth a try!
