The premise

Here’s the bit.

Two men settle into neighboring rows of an airplane, one expecting a normal flight and the other proud of his cheaper ticket. A flight attendant draws a firm boundary between their fare classes, extending the difference from snacks and music to seats, safety equipment and even turbulence. The budget traveler improvises his way through increasingly punishing service while the man in front enjoys a peaceful trip. Getting off at his destination brings one final surprise.
