Wife Is Upset After Husband Upgrades His Ticket And Leave Her Alone For Their 12-Hour Flight

Marriage generally means staying together through thick and thin and enjoying life with the person you love. If one of them chooses to leave their spouse behind to pursue better possibilities in life, they do not deserve to marry in order to reap the benefits of having a companion by their side.

OP found himself in a similar scenario when he was given the option of upgrading only his ticket to business class with miles, while his wife had to stay in economy for their 12-hour travel from Japan to the United States. OP and his wife booked a vacation, and she preferred to seat with her husband on the plane rather than with a stranger, but OP wanted to sit in business class and tried to persuade her wife to sit alone. Read the entire story to hear OP’s perspective about accepting the business class for himself.
