Jim and Mary had been married for over 30 years and they were travelling from Los Angeles to London.
During check-in at LAX, the airline agent was apologetic to Jim and said, “Sir, I’m sorry but the flight is full today and you should be aware that you and your wife haven’t been allocated adjacent seats. Your seat number is 14A and your wife’s is 42H.”
“Well, thank you, mam,” said Jim, with a smile, “Will I have to pay an extra charge for this bonus?”
“Oh, no sir,” said the airline agent, politely, “your wife has already paid.”
