Debate rages over "most reclined seat in the history of aviation"
Frustrated travellers have called out a passenger for reclining his seat all the way on a short flight.
The Pointer Brothers shared a video to TikTok saying it’s the “easiest red card of all time” when someone reclines their seat when there’s not enough room to begin with.
“5 hour flight home…is this the most reclined seat in the history of aviation,” their caption read.
The video shows one of the brothers annoyed at being squished in his seat because of the person in front of him being reclined.
At one point he moves really close to the passenger's head to show his frustration.
Viewers said the brothers have a point in calling the issue out as planes are already cramped enough.
“Those seats should just not recline, it’s cramped enough and I already don’t have leg room,” someone wrote.
“That's when passive-aggressive tray adjustments commence,” another commented.
“I’m 6’3” and I have never reclined my seat. I can’t bring myself to push into others' space, the dang planes are small the way it is,” someone else pointed out.
Others however said the brothers were in the wrong and everyone is entitled to recline their seat.
“So many people in this comments section don't understand how legroom works... reclining your seat doesn't keep your knees from being smashed,” someone said.
“Wah people are using the seats for what they're for. Want more room, get first class,” another wrote.
