Tech sales rep Jameel Rehman was enjoying sipping on champagne in first class with his mother having just won a trip to Hawaii for being a top performer at Cisco.
"Here we are enjoying business class for the first time together."

Just after 5 minutes of recording himself living the high life, he was approached by an attendant and told that he would have to leave his seat because it was ‘misengineered’.

Not only was he being moved from his seat, but he was also being moved from first-class entirely. He’d be seated in *gasp* economy.

"So I've just been informed that I have to leave this seat in business class because it's been misengineered. So now, I get to enjoy it for just a brief second, got to my champagne which was lovely, but now I have to go back to economy class. Still, get all the perks of being in a first-class except for the seat, and uh, the space of course."

This was the first time Rehman was getting to enjoy first class but took it all in stride as the attendants explained to him that he’d still be enjoying all the same perks of first-class other than the seat.
"Kicked out of business class my first time," said the caption on his video.

He packs up his items and says, "But what can you do? I mean jeez at least I got to enjoy it for just a brief second but the staff are very apologetic, can't really knock 'em. What can you do? I'm still here, I'm still enjoying it, and uh, yeah, I'll get 'em next time."

An attendant can be heard "saying, Mr Rehman I just we're really gonna have the pleasure of you tonight in our cabin, so we'll look after you very well and Harry said that they'll look after you from here as well with anything that you need."

The stark difference is immediately apparent as soon as he steps through the curtain to the wails of a crying baby.

He is then given an entire row to himself still sporting the same positive outlook as before and ends the video saying, “How the mighty have fallen.”
