Why would any grownup have to lay back 6 inches?


Most airlines allow about 5 degrees of recline in economy class, with a 30 to 31 inches of "pitch".

I used to recline in my seat all the time. Then one flight I just stopped. The extra few inches in economy aren’t really worth it. In first class and premium the seats are more comfortable to begin with and many times reclining isn’t needed.

The people that recline are the same people that leave their shopping cart in the parking lot. Absolute drags on society.

I usually point my air vent wide open at their head. Aggravates the crap out of them.

If the small distance they recline doesn’t make a difference, then why are you coming out here to post about it?

I'm 6'4"...mostly legs and couldn't give a shite less if someone reclines or not. The pivot point in the seat is above my knees, so it makes no difference.

Are you considerate of someone who may be in the seat behind you?


Absolutely not

Think about it if everyone reclines then it’s the same space. Usually I just forget to recline

Before the "ding" is done, the seat goes back.

I'm 4'10". I do not lean back, but I guess I don't care much if someone does.

I also sit fairly erect in my car and adjust pretty much everyone's passenger seat if the last person was practically lying down.

My only gripe with seats is when [a] children kick mine the entire time, or [b] people use mine to pull themselves up which sends me back and then catapults me back erect.

You sound like one of those covid nuts that wants everyone to not exercise their own freedom and conform to you.

If you don’t like the rules then don’t get on the plane? How about spend more money and go first class? How about not complain about the position you put yourself in?
