re: PSA: Don't recline your seat back on flights

bullshite. I just flew on the longest flight currently available Dallas to Sydney. There is no way in hell I'm not reclining my seat. I was in Premium Economy so I had a much bigger and wider seat that reclined farther and had a foot rest.
If I was in the poor section I would've died

Sit in an exit row.
Or the front row.

I am the same height as the OP. When I sit on a plane I just jam my knees into the seat in front of me and don't allow it to recline.

What a little bitch you are.

About to fly out of Las Vegas, I'll be reclining my seat.

You being tall should always try to buy the emergency exit row. You have more leg room and the people in front of you aren't able to recline their chairs

I'm not reading all that. But I can definitely tell you are self-absorbed a-hole. Enjoy yourself.

Tall people should be required to buy their seat and the one in front of them. Being above average height is really just insensitive bullshite.

This is a very passive aggressive story

I always fly Southwest so we are always crowded like sardines. Don't think I've flown on anything bigger than a 737 with them. I never recline my seat back as a courtesy to those who are behind me.
If you're flying Southwest expect to deal with trashy people. If you can't fit with the seat in front of you reclined, stop being a cheap arse, pay for the business elite, get the first seat behind the bulkhead, and stop whining.

Damn cuz you man huh? First pick your airline with care. Is being miserable worth saving the $7 in fare? Next don't be afraid to purchase a nicer seat. I am 6'1 and love Delta economy comfort+ when I don't get upgraded. You see I fly 175 flights a year so I know how this shite goes. Now if I do a same day standby and get screwed on seats (back middle) I knew that risk going in.
Airfare is a commodity. If I pay $434 for a flight in a cramped leather chair you better damn well know I may lean back. I will however assess the person behind me to find balance in my needs and theirs. However if you are a punk about it I will go from sitting up straight to smashed back in .2 seconds- especially if you are being an a-hole to a flight attendant.
I get it these things are cramped. Just be more selective in seat selection. If you tell me you can't afford the $29 upgraded seat then barring only a few circumstances (travel to funeral) then do you really need to be flying in the first place?

If trolling, great job. If not frick off.

What kinda ink she have on her thigh?
As far as reclne, u am like a domino, you recline in front of me I go back my 4 inches too.
There is so very little change in legroom that it seems you are being a tad bit of a shiner. The top hoes back like 4 inches, down at the bottom it moves about an inch

I've never flown anywhere as I prefer to drive. However if I do fly and hearing the stories, I will definitely do it first class.

Obese people should not be allowed on flights. It's that simple.
I'm inclined to agree with you.
But, I don't need a seatbelt extension and still always get a window seat that I can turn against.
Broad shoulders are, if anything, more of a pain in the arse than being fat on an airplane.
And I can't suck in my shoulders.

I was on the giving end of one of these. Dude behind me had an entire row to himself but insisted on sitting right behind me to look out the window. Dude was easily 6'3". His knees were in my back and I kept pushing with my feet to force the recline more to him because the idiot wanted to sit next to the window when he could move over one seat and not have anyone in front of him.

I heard about those , I want to try one out one flight .
They have been banned by all airlines.
Oh, I know . But aren't they small And unnoticeable? Wouldn't the passenger in front have to complain? I mean, they can't throw you out at 30,000 ft.

They put the ability to recline your seat on a plane, I'm gonna recline my seat. fricking deal with it. If you too tall and want more space, buy I first class ticket. You probably piss every person stuck behind u at the movies or a concert, because you're blocking them. Do you know what they do? They deal with it. You know what they probably don't do?
