This really needs to be addressed by the airlines. How many times have I seen people trying to eat while reclining? I'm sure they don't eat while reclining at home. (One man bought a TUNA SANDWICH from a VENDING MACHINE and proceeded to stink up the entire cabin when he unwrapped it. Or how about the people who go barefoot on board? Or the amateurs who put their carry-on suitcases SIDEWAYS in the overhead compartment? Don't get me started!) Many airlines removed an inch of padding from all the seats in order to cram in another row! I hope these events keep occurring until the airlines tighten up the rules.

Until this star...I for one, really DIDN'T know! Until this started in the news last week, it had seriously never occurred to me that it was rude to recline. I've never had anyone ask me before doing it, and I've never thought to ask before doing it myself. EVERYONE is uncomfortable on a plane, and reclining makes it a little (very little) more so. <br /><br />While I'll certainly think about it NOW, I think this visceral "reclining people are evil assholes" is a little much.

When you recline in those, it moves the person reclining forward instead of backward. So, on a plane, the person reclining would be moving themselves toward the seat in front of them instead of backwards toward the person behind them. Issue solvedAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
