What: Tatarstan Airlines en route from Antalya, Turkey to Ekaterinburg, Russia
Where: aboard the plane
Why: Instead of the 148-seat Boeing 737 that was booked, they had a 142-seat 737; and 6 passengers were given the choice of waiting for the next flight or flying standing up. During turbulence, the passengers sat on the floor. The airline offered them $200 in compensation. The passengers are asking for $4,700.

(Can you imagine how much they’d be asking if they were in the US?)

What is this, a third world country where there are no rules and laws about flight safety? Well, Tatarstan flies out of Kazan, Tatarstan, Russia.
