“We’ve got the best seat on the plane. There’s no going back,” Sergio began, pointing to the wall and showing that there were no other seats behind the couple. “Now look at this,” he said as he turned the camera to reveal that their two seats were placed in opposite directions, facing all the other passengers.
“So basically we’re facing the cabin,” the TikToker said. All the other travelers on the plane were sitting across from the pair, many of them staring at Sergio as he was being filmed.
