As awful as that is.

Most people have calculated that the guy payed and extra 2000-2700 for the extra leg room seat.

So he would have been losing money.

how? you say he paid an extra 2700, so he's already out of pocket at least that amount... taking the 1500, he recoups that amount, at least, so now he's only out of pocket 1200... how would he "lose" money?

now, if you say he wouldn't have come out ahead by taking 1500, bc he paid 2700 for the seat, that i can agree with, but he most certainly, by taking the 1500, would not have been "losing" money...

If he paid an extra 2700 dollars to sit with extra leg room, then took 1500 to sit another seat without the leg room then he paid 1200 dollars more than a regular seat would’ve cost without the added benefit of the extra leg room

but what i'm saying is, he already came out of pocket 2700.. that was his choice before the offer was ever made... he already was down that amount, on his own.... Cam offered 1500, so if he takes it, then he's only down 1200... if not, he's still down the entire 2700... therefore, in no way does taking the 1500 result in him "losing" money... he can't go any lower than the 2700 he willingly paid... taking the 1500 offsets that amount, so he'd only be down 1200.. that's my point.... the statement is incorrect... he can't "lose" money by taking it... he may lose what he orignially paid, but the amount Cam offers will only go towards offsetting the orignial "loss"...

You’re mistaking him paying 2700 for the ticket and him paying 2700 EXTRA for the leg room

He bought the leg room for 2700 (according to the previous posts in this thread. Seems high to me), if Cam pays him 1500 for the seat then he lost 1200 dollar because he’s in a regular arse seat he could’ve had for 2700 dollar less than what he paid.


If you buy an NFL team for 2.1 billion, and then sell it soon there after for 1.5 billion, then yes you lost money. It’s the same concept.

It was worth an estimated 2000-2700 EXTRA to the guy to have leg room

Why would he take 1500 (500-1200 less than he paid) to NOT have leg room.

If he had just paid for a regular seat and happened to have leg room you'd have a point.

you've lost the opportune cost, sure... but what i'm saying is that if he was already out of pocket 2700, which at the point of the offer is already willingly paid, he still has at least the 1500 that Cam gives him if he takes the offer... at THAT point, he's not losing any MONEY... he's lost the opportunity he paid for, with the extra room that he willing paid 2700, but he's gaining 1500 from the real time transaction...

he's not being made whole, as the opportunity cost he paid was 2700 and he's only getting 1500, but in terms of, at that point of Cam giving him 1500, he's not "losing" anything.... he's in the hole 2700, either way... taking the 1500 lessens that burden, so again, he's not "losing" money...

10 hour flight from France to Dallas. Not worth $1,500 to lose your business class seat and go back to coach with your knees on the back of the seat in front of you for 10 hours.

Also, why did Cam only go to this 1 guy. None of the articles/stories about this talk about whether or not Cam went to the other passengers in similar seats. They were probably at least 10 of them.


For those wondering why Cam was flying coach, he missed his earlier flight and was a standby passenger. Coach was all they had available.
