You have purchased your seat for your flight. You get a notification that your seat has changed. You board the plane. Your new seat is in an emergency exit row. You ask the flight attendant for a seatbelt extender because the standard seatbelts do not accommodate your body. You are told that if you need to use a seatbelt extender, you can't sit in the emergency exit row and will need to switch seats with someone, unless you can "try to make it work" without it. You try for some time and it just doesn't work. You inform the flight attendant that it's not working. Your face flushes as the flight attendant turns to the rest of the plane to announce the situation and requests a volunteer for the seat switch. Silence.
