That's exactly why I always ensure that my knees are firmly positioned right behind the middle of the seat in front of me immediately after takeoff...

At some point in time this thing will cause an inflight passenger disturbance that will require a divert.

Our product has become so onerous (Airport, TSA, Lines, etc, etc) I overheard someone mention they would pay a million bucks NOT to fly.

Music to the VLJ industries ears. They are banking on it.

So its ok to make someone else uncomfortable because you are too large that 5" of recline invades your personal space?

Reclining?

Real SEATS!!??!!

What are those??

I set a hammock up in the cargo compartment for the buzz across the pond, all the legroom in the world...

I haven't flown in a true civilian airliner in years...

Default Non reclining seats

Ryan air THE LLC of Europe has all 737 like southwest and none of thier seats on any airplane recline. It also seems like there is another row or two because I am not tall, and my knees touch the seat in front of me. It is the most uncomfortable flight in the world.

Easyjet is the same, as are many of the UK charter airlines. Talk about DVT!
