Would You Do This to Your New Spouse?

In the News

Was watching Loose Women earlier (yeh I know, embarrassing!) And they featured story of a couple returning from honeymoon who were offered an upgrade for one on the flight back. Off he goes to business class having a great time while she had to stay in economy!

If that were me it would have been a very short marriage!

Gordon Ramsey a multi millionaire frequently gets his kids to fly economy while him and his wife travel first/business. Impossible to be pair if only one upgrade is offered

The point being he should have declined, I would have as I would want to stay with the person I supposedly loved!

Oh dear, I think my husband would have told me to go, but I probably would have stayed in economy with him...

on a honeymoon as well? I would understand if you had been together forever and then had a discussion about it before you agreed on who would benefit from taking up the upgrade, but even then I wouldn't do it - already facing the world together, so might as well slum it in economy together!

I think he misunderstood for better or for worse, he took the better, she got the worse!

Lol if that happened to me, I'd be Vex. Unless I had already had an upgrade on the way there! TBH I wouldn't mind if he had offered it to me first or we switch half way through the flight.

Lynibis I usually sleep through flights anyway so I probably wouldn't even miss him. But I'd like to think he would offer it to me first. And I'd take it! hahaha

no big deal really. if one of you is offered a free upgrade then at least one of you should use it. I am sure they discussed it first and agreed who should take it

If it was that couple who got married and she went public about his wee micropenis, then I can see why he's done it, he already had the short straw.

I discussed this with my husband and we both agreed that we would do this and that it would be my husband who would go into business class. My husband is 6 foot 2 and built like a rugby player, so the extra room would be beneficial for him.

Saying that we never fly anywhere and we didn't go on honeymoon!

Well one thing I have learned from newspapers over the years is that they always put their own slant on a story and maybe this couple had no problem whatsoever, but the newspaper made it out more than it was. I don't have a partner but I am pretty sure I wouldn't like being left alone in 'steerage' while he had a swanky time in business lol.

I would have blown my top but then again my other half wouldn't even of dreamed to do that. One look from me would have been enough for him to not consider it hahaha
