I am sure that the majority of the people involved in First have both the knowledge of, and the ability to understand, the "do not save seats" rule. It is announced continually over the PA's, written in the rule book, posted online, and as I have heard through the many stories people are telling it directly to each other.

I understand wanting to stay together as a group. However, this is one of the times when plain old logistics force us to take a more gracious approach to a situation.

I personally would be straight up embarrassed to be sitting in a seat that had a sign on it stating "VIP Reserved" while someone was announcing that saving seats is against the rules. I am not making up the sign. We saw it at regionals.

Saving seats says "you are important" to the person it is being saved for. What message do you think everyone else is getting from you?
