Another Passenger Fight Over Reclining Seats Has Caused A Flight To Be Diverted
For the third time in a little over a week, a flight has been diverted because of a passenger fight over reclining seats. (www.businessinsider.com) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
Granted there are financial issues the airlines must contend with, but they have chosen to create the conditions that are causing the unruly behavior to solve their financial woes. It is a proven scientific fact that the more rats you crowd into a confined space, the more unruly they become. Regular passenger seats are so close together in all directions that you must contort yourself just to get into your seat. Heaven help you if you need to reach for something stowed under the seat in front of you. I am of average height and build. Putting the tray down for use when the person in front of me is sitting up is bordering on uncomfortable...and almost impossible when they are leaning back. Why should I be uncomfortable so the person in front of me can be comfortable. Did we not both purchase tickets for the same accommodations. One simple solution is for all seats remain in the upright position and locked. My wife and I had planned several flights this year, including Hawaii, but....we decided to stay home because of the lack of space around the seats.
The solution is simple, install non reclining seats on short haul aircraft and give greater legroom on all other aircraft on flights that suggest a period of rest or sleep.
I have flown many 12 hour plus sectors and have found reclining uncomfortable as it is not a natural position to gain useful sleep and never bothered to try.
Not wishing to be indelicate, I found snoring and farting to be worse crimes on flights than inept recliners in front of me and now we are subjected to unrestricted mobile chatter and other noises.

The Aircraft Carriers are the Ones who are liable! They didn't provide ample Space!
No more Reclining Seats problem solved! The Aircraft Carriers are the Ones who are liable!
I hope it happens more and more until the greedy airlines decide to solve the problem by giving us all a little more space. It is ridiculous how close they have squeezed the seats just to make a few more bucks. Flying used to be somewhat enjoyable. Now they treat us like livestock going to market.
To AWAALUM: you are correct on both accounts, regarding my post. I fly when I must and rail when I can. Rail is much more comfortable, along with the "berths" and meals. Blue Skies!
I totally agree. Airlines should have in their restrictions all perfumes. People are allergic to slot of them. They can wait till they get to their destination. They are all about themselves.
