I am in the air currently from Atlanta to NY and am in utter misery. I am cramped between two 300lbers who's bodies are pushing well under the arm rest and the one to my right is laying down a nasty fart every 10 minutes. I can't move as the flight is full and can't work or focus in this smelling sardine can.
I haven't been on a plane in a few years, which is sad. But I didn't know they have WiFi now. Thats cool.
I will take sitting next to a fat women on an airplane over an average sized man. The women can stuff their fat butts between the arm rests, which acts as a barrier. It's sitting next to a dude with broad shoulders that really sucks (and I'm one of them). Even bigger women usually don't have very broad shoulders. There's basically nothing you can do except suck your shoulders in all flight or lean slightly forward with his shoulder behind you...or just sit with shoulders pressing firmly against each other the entire flight.
Oh, an obligatory airplane complaint response. <iframe width="420" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/uEY58fiSK8E?start=120" frameborder="0" t="120" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Few back from the UK for the first time in 95 when they still allowed smoking on flights, sat at the back right behind a chain smoker. Sucked.
So OP took the center seat in a 3 seat arrangement hoping that it would increase the chances of sitting next to some hottie. Nice work! Back to the topic, I hate this situation more in International Flights where you are pretty much sandwiched for about 16 hours in my case. It's a pain to even visit the lav.

Sadly they don't allow for streaming on the wifi network in planes. It's rather sluggish internet but hey it's better than nothing, that's for sure.
Commandeer the latrine using your best Liam Neeson voice. "I'm going to need to set up a command and control center in this here latrine." "I have a particular set of skills but sitting in the middle seat between two heffers isn't one of them."
Landed can't wait to get off. I will never Get the smell out of my mind. I feel like I need to shower
I had a flight from hell like that once, from Amsterdam to Dammam....worst flight ever. Dude's arms were nearly half way over my side of the arm rest. I could barely eat on the corner of the food tray. That dude should have had to buy 2 seats.
Worst flight I've ever been on: Frankfurt to Dallas. I was in the next-to-last row and sat next to a single mother with two crying toddlers. The young boy had Down Syndrome and both cried the entire 11-hour flight. Screeching. I felt awful for her because with children that young, there's nothing you can do; they can't communicate their discomfort any other way, but it was misery for everybody else around them. Once the plane landed, she gave all of us candy and the boy was immediately ok. She explained that he is sensitive to pressure and doesn't like feeling out of control, so it all made total sense. Still, it was a nightmare.
