I'm a BIG man, 6' 2" and 280, so having a "seat mate" crowds me due to no fault of that person. And the price of a sleeping room is prohibitive on my S/S. It would be nice if one could plan ahead and find someone with whom to share a sleeper. But then I watch enough Judge Judy to see even the best of friends have problems sharing trips together.

Oh, plus I SNORE.
