    I really don't understand why the OP is struggling with this one.

    Perhaps we should come up with some better suggestions ?

    The Pilot had BO and didn't want anyone too close to the flight-deck in fear of having to pay EU-compensation.

    Surely it's to get a better view of justin and nigel canoodling in the galley..........or that leggy blonde reaching up to the top locker.

    The real reason is so I can nip and get a row to myself as soon as we've taken off! ;)

    OK so if I was to believe the 'balance the plane' one why does the plane not go into a nose dive when 6 people queue for the bogs & the 3 cabin crew are all in the galley area ???

    Maybe that is the total of the unsold seats. It is easier to block off a section, rather than having people sitting all over the place.

    This would save money as these rows won't need cleaning and it would also save the cabin crew time when selling their drinks etc.

    Apology accepted,.........did you see President Obama's car get stuck on a road hump so that all four wheels were off the ground...............surely he should take the hint from Ryanair about balancing the transport so this would not happen.
    Michael O'Leary for president..............watch my lips............no new taxes..........
