You shouldn’t interfere with the person in front of you, that’s just being a douchebag and the airlines should not allow it
“Seats on planes with no legroom should not recline. Period!”
Dittos.
heres a technical solution for you all. Airline seats could still be designed to be reclined but it would require a second release button that was operated by the passenger directly behind. At the beginning of the flight during the general announcements, there would just be something tagged on after all the heres how you buckle up
stuff. It would go something like this
. For most of the seats on this plane, you will note that your seat can be reclined. However, many of the seats behind you may be occupied by people who cannot have a seat reclined due to leg length, working on a laptop or some other reason. On the other hand, some of those people may have short legs, want to recline and sleep themselves or generally dont care if the person ahead of them wants to recline. If you are one of those people who are willing to have the seat ahead of you reclined, you can voluntarily push that release button now. However, if the individual behind you has not released your seat for recline, please respect their decision. Please note
.. if you attempt to recline your seat, it automatically releases the seat ahead of you for recline.
but it’s okay to interfere with the person behind you? like smashing their knees?
