That's just silly. Seats should never be reclined.

Not yet, but there's still time!


the choice to back or forth into 90 degree stall opinings should be mostly made on the potential of holding someone else up from performing their own act.
but will always prefer reversing because i know how to maneuver silly busses' and have multiple view chimeras including from above within one wholistic dashboard and also those damn blind spot beeps and automatic brakes

I'd like to see an airline do away with seats altogether. Rows and rows of bunk beds and everyone lies down for the duration of the flight.

Tear out the seats, that's what takes up all the space. remove the overhead storage. Now there is plenty of room for everyone to move around.

Sit on your luggage. Or lay out a sleeping bag. Whatever. The flight attendant will toss out bags of peanuts like a stadium vendor.

I have no solution for turbulence or rough landings so everyone will have to wear helmets.


In before "best way to park a plane"


All the pilots I've seen have needed help parking. It looks like they'll hire just about anyone for that job.


O'Hare will have you taxi-ing for fifteen minutes before you even get a chance to park.


What are the chances that at least one person on this very forum is: a bad backer-upper, reclining seat airplane rider, and a lousy tipper?


I tip great and have never reclined on public transportation. That has to strengthen the legitimacy of backing into parking spots.


People who don't recline on planes not insisting on bulkhead seats.


I don't recline until the a-hole in front of me does. Pay it backwards...


I generally won't recline on domestic flights. However, when I'm on an adventure and going long-haul, I want to lay back a little (such as it is).

I always try to remember to mention it to the person behind me when we're getting seated, and try to go back slowly.


I don't recline on flights.

The last tip I left was ten on twenty.

No comment on parking skills.

this, ldo


Ugh, I fly on those regional jets on Delta more often than I'd like, in and out of Salt Lake. Any context to that accident? Looks like it could be near Salt Lake.


frontier does not allow you to recline seats - was a pretty miserable flight from las vegas to nyc being unable to sleep

I flew air Asia a few weeks ago and for the 1st time in years didn't upgrade to the extra legroom seats. They have cut the legroom even more, have to assume frontier is the same. Only an hour flight but unbearable. Never again.
To NYC must have been borderline suicidal.

Do y'all non-dishwasher weirdos all live alone/never cook real food/etc? I'd ****ing commit seppuku if I had to hand wash everything.

I mean I get it if you don't have one and you gotta do what you gotta do, but having one and having never touched it or not run it in 30 years feels ****ing weird.

I remember as a kid my parents had one and would never use it - always handwash. Then when I got older as a teenager and adult years I noticed that they started using one. Having moved out I have always used one. But I did not consider it unusual as a kid that we would never use one - I just assumed because we were poor


Pisses me off there aren't more expensive airplane seats where the person in front of you can't recline, offset by the price of discounted seats unable to recline.


The crispness of potato chips.
