‘Glorious justice’: Karen learns a lesson after throwing a fit on plane over co-passenger's service dog
The adage "everything happens for a reason" was proven true when a service dog and his family enjoyed a long journey in business class after a Karen’s drama led to their seat upgrade. The dog’s owner, who goes by the username u/ineedatinylama, revealed that the incident took place in 2000 when he was traveling with his family and the service dog, whose call name was Liddy.
The OP (original poster) said his family had seats in the back of the plane where he encountered a woman, who “have had allergies, but they only popped up when it was convenient.” “At the check-in, entitled business class ticket holder Karen spotted my service dog, went up to the desk, and demanded we be bumped off the flight because she was " highly allergic" to dogs. She began wheezing, sneezing and gasping on cue,” he wrote in a post on Reddit’s ‘Malicious Compliance’ forum.

'Karen pitched a fit'
The dog owner pointed out that his family had been seated within two feet of the lady for more than an hour and his dog was tucked under his chair but she only noticed him when he got up to get water. “The CSR stated he would be happy to bump HER to a later flight. Karen pitched a fit (forgetting she needed to cough, wheeze, and sneeze),” he stated further in the post. The woman then requested to talk to the supervisor, who assured her that “if she wanted to stay on this flight, they would do everything in their power to move the seating so that my dog was as far away from her and her family as possible.”
The lady and her family were then moved to the back row while the OP was promoted to the empty first class, where Liddy got a seat of his own. “Yes, they covered the seat with a blanket and I put my coat on it as well to keep fur off,” the OP added. The dog owner’s post soon garnered immense social media attention, with many users slamming the lady. “The way this woman put up a fit without knowing that you guys were in the very back and yet, lesson learned,” one user said.
'Keep your lies consistent'
“Glorious Justice,” the second user said while the third asserted, “Ferengi rule of Acquisition #60: Keep your lies consistent. Another user chimed in, “Lol! This is exactly what is meant by karmic justice! You were minding your own business and she came along and caused problems, then ended up in the back of the plane, too! While you got bumped up... I would hate being at the back. It would take forever to deplane because all the other passengers would be ahead of you. The only potential benefit would be if you needed to pee suddenly and the bathroom was right there.”
