woman is an Israeli citizen and should understand the problem.
You could say that that male Orthodox Jew passengers also know the problem/rules. In Israel passengers are not moved for religious reasons. El Al won't do it, easyJet shouldn't do it either. I believe the female passenger was asked, not told. A subtle difference. However, I believe she had paid for an extra leg room seat and was naturally not happy to give that up for such a long journey. I know I wouldn't be too happy about it.
