I was flying alone to Chicago for work. I picked an aisle seat to get off quickly. I had paid to upgrade to the A group so I could make sure I got my carryon on with me. I was able to pick an aisle seat in row 4. Toward the end of the flight boarding, a large person got on and sat in the middle. They struggled to get in . I actually helped with their belt. They needed an extension. I don’t mind any of it. I am fairly small. I had cancer so I am also a little more fragile. This poor person didn’t fit so they sat partially on my leg and hip the entire flight. They kept their arms halfway in the air because they couldn’t put them down. Needless to say, I actually was in some pain during, directly after, and for a few days after the flight. I didn’t want to complain or embarrass them. I also don’t want to be in pain again. What would you do?
