That lock should be banned first of all. Second this is an airline issue over a passenger issue.

The seats are too close together.

But I am in the school of if the seats recline then they should be allowed to recline. Why should one passenger not be able to recline because they got stuck with the wrong person behind them.

Once again. This is an airline issue first

- Ah the story I saw on the news this morning said the device was allowed or not allowed on a decision by the individual airlines. -- nm - Bacon Aug 26, 07:33 1
  - correct. it's banned by the airline in question (and all other major domestic carriers, ftm), not the FAA -- nm - znufrii Aug 26, 07:34
Because it's my knees? (also, deep vein thrombosis, in rare cases) - Reagen Aug 26, 07:22 10
- I understand what you are saying. So the person that gets you behind them has a special rule others don't? - Bacon Aug 26, 07:27 9
  - This is something that should be solved by polite discussion. There's no "pass it backward" rule. -- nm - Roger More Aug 26, 07:31
  - If I'm telling you that what you're doing hurts me, you're kind of a special asshole to shrug your shoulders and keep doing it. -- nm - Reagen Aug 26, 07:29 6
    - my lower back kills on long flights - easing the seat back a bit helps - decline Aug 26, 07:45
    - Do you try for the exit rows? -- nm - Spawn Aug 26, 07:32 3
      - yes, but you can't if you're flying with kids. -- nm - Reagen Aug 26, 07:33 2
        
        Stick them in the overhead bins? -- nm - Spawn Aug 26, 07:34 1
        
        or if they're small enough, under the seat in front of you. -- nm - znufrii Aug 26, 07:36
    - I agree with that - Bacon Aug 26, 07:31
  - I would vote to make all chairs stay fixed btw. Kind of solves the issue -- nm - Bacon Aug 26, 07:28
