Deptrai, this reminds me of a story I heard once.

Similar person, full of self-importance, sitting in Economy. A young student is allocated the seat next to him and sits down quietly. Said "suit" calls over the crewmember and causes a scene stating that he was told at check-in that the seat next to him would be empty (check-in presumably just said that they would try to do this, but no guarantees.) The crewmember has a word with the CSD who comes over to the young student and informs him that there is a spare seat in Business Class if he would care to change. He does so, no fuss, extremely grateful. Meanwhile the "suit" is causing another scene, saying that it should have been given to him as he is travelling on business etc, etc, etc....... Crewmember calmy says to him, "Sir, we have managed to arrange for the seat next to you to be empty, as you requested. have a nice flight."

Oh to have been a witness to that.
