Airplane fight over seat recline.

[Rockheart]

This guy had some new gadget that stops the person in front from reclining their seat.
I have long legs but even I think this is not fair. Everyone should have the right to recline if it is available.
It says these airlines have banned them but this guy refused to remove it.
Interesting product though.

There was a lot of discussion about this incident. Many stated that wanted no more recline, which I think was a bad idea. The reason why they wanted no recline was because they felt it was rude, now a days there is less space in economy, and if they have anything on their tray if the person in front reclines it will knock off anything in the tray.

I think that reclining should be kept, and people need to be courteous to check if the person behind is using their tray, and don't recline if so. I fly long haul flights and reclining even a little bit makes it easier to sleep, which is key to reducing jet lag.

I don't think anyone has the right to block someones seat from reclining ... however being 6 foot 3 I have been hit in the knee before when the guy in front of me just suddenly released the seat and it came flying back.
