“There are six of us but my brother and I live in the same part of the country,” she said – so they were both in the same part flight to hawaii,
“I think it would be relevant to say that I am 5’1″ and my brother is 6’6”, she wrote.
A frequent traveler for work, she said, “My father has a very good deal with the airline from which he bought our tickets.”

As he and his brother were boarding the plane, a flight attendant approached them and told them that a spot in first class had become available.
“The flight attendant whispered that they didn’t have a first class passenger coming, and they needed the coach seat to accommodate a standby passenger,” ABIsSoStupid said.
“He said I had the highest status by far than anyone else on the plane, so they were willing to move me to first class for free.”
“I had a good flight.”
The woman happily accepted the upgrade and “would take it in a heartbeat,” he said.
“I told my brother I would meet him 12 hours later and he would let me know if he wanted any food or drinks and I picked up my stuff and left,” she said.
“Needless to say, I had a good flight.”

However, her brother was quite upset that she didn’t give him an upgrade, as he is very tall and could have possibly used the extra legroom to be more comfortable.
After the plane landed, her brother refused to talk to her the entire trip to the hotel, she said — and then told her family she had been upgraded.

“We had a nice hello with the rest of the family, but when I came out of the shower my mom took me aside and said what I did was ‘really bad,'” said ABISSOSTUPID.
Confused, the woman said she asked her mother what she was talking about — “and she said I should have given the seat to my brother.”
The Reddit writer continued, “I thought that would be the end of it, but all five of my siblings and my parents are mad at me and holidays are closed “It was a very rough start,” she said.

The woman said that her siblings had also told their children to stay away from her as she was not a loyal member of the family.
“My sister said, ‘No, they only like to play with people who worry about their family – what were you thinking?'” ABISSOSTUPID wrote.
When the woman pointed out that her brother never asked for an upgrade, the sister responded that she shouldn’t have done so – and that she should have automatically given her brother the upgrade for his comfort.

“I’ve been alone since brunch and not having much fun. Aita?” ABISSOSTUPID on Reddit asked about others.
In an update to the post after others commented, ABIsSoStupid added that his family Still angry at her, but on different levels – and she’s spending time with a friend who lives in Hawaii instead.
“So my vacation will be great no matter what,” said Abbyssostupid. “But reading your comments really gave me the confidence to not fuck up (or at least try). Thanks.”
