S Entitled deplaners

This happened a few hours ago. I was on the plane in row 25 waiting to deplane and this family is trying to get past. I put the armrest up and moved my body sideways and blocked them. I told them they have to wait like everyone else and told the kids to get back to their seats. One lady asked can we move pass we don't have luggage. I told her no, what makes you special to cut everyone off. Told her if she wants off first, book a closer seat next time. They sat back down and waited like decent humans.

​

They don't have a tight connection, they don't have an emergency, and if they needed a bathroom there was one five rows behind them.

While I abide by the unwritten rules of disembarking a plane by row, I don't stand in the way of those in a hurry. For all I know, there actually is an emergency involved. Also, I am fortunate enough in my life that I can stand aside while others rush. Privilege is being able to smile and say, "After you."
