Reporters sit in coach.
Tour regulars have marked their territory with business cards taped to the seatback in front of them. Newbies, like Mullings, have to scramble for a position and beg permission to sit. I was amused by the number of very well known reporters on the plane who were not only sitting in coach, but in middle seats. Oh, I had a middle seat, too. I wondered aloud what would happen if someone from the back drifted up to the front.
