Regardless of the fine print involved, the original passenger paid for the seat, and also did not communicate the switch of the seat to another person.

And the Agent didn't give enough of a rat's patootie (typical), to communicate this to the employees on the plane, who when informed of this, went into Nazi stormtrooper mode when challenged (also typical) and threw the family off the flight.

Lesson learned, citizens! Do not - repeat - do not challenge ze flight attendants! Rulz Iz Rulz! Sieg Heil!
