I don’t mind if the person in front of me reclines. But the seat back stops at my knees. Guaranteed.
I don’t use recline, and I don’t like it when people in front of me use it. However, the worst part is when they slam the seat into full recline without any warning. At least have the courtesy to go slow so that the person sitting in back has a chance to move items and/or reposition their knees, right?
I have had my laptop broken by the person in front of me reclining their seat. I now require my employer to fly me business class where available. Bottom line: air travel these days sucks. Take the train for shorter hauls.
