When I get a recliner in front of me, I always ask that they go back upright. They may get annoyed but they always do it. Legs are too long for that crap. And out of courtesy I never recline myself
I've seen SUCH strong opinions on this, and I don't understand. It's 3 inches. It barely matters. You're going to be relatively uncomfortable in the economy seat regardless. Why is this such a sticking point for many?
I was once trapped in the middle seat between two big sleeping fellas and the seats in front of them were reclined meaning I couldn't even slip past the aisle guy if I wanted out. I was literally enclosed in all means.
I dont get how this has become a thing... I mean the seats are built with recline-capability and they dont move. It's how they're intended to be used, in exactly the situation that people complain about
