“I was on a flight where a verbal argument broke out because someone reclined their seat.”

"I was on a flight where a verbal argument broke out because someone reclined their seat."– Tafi Mukunyadzi

"I am short, but I also might want to use my tray table, and I don't want the screen in my lap if I'm trying to watch a show. I know it's not comfortable, but it doesn't need to be! We're all uncomfortable! School buses don't have a recline, nor do big tour buses. I've been on HOURS-long trips on both, and I survived." —Kelley Greene

"I'm definitely anti-reclining. If someone else reclines, you either get no legroom or have to recline yourself. And most of the time, I don't feel like reclining! Just because you have the option to recline doesn't mean you should." —Harrison Berger

"As someone with very long legs, I despise when people recline in front of me. I barely have enough leg room as it is! Plus, it just starts off a chain of reclining. Why don't we just all collectively agree to NOT recline so we can all keep our collective sanity? I feel like you can't trust people to choose their own reclining level because humans are selfish, which is why no reclining is better… I'd rather everyone just have the same seat period. It’s equality." —Abby Zinman

"I always notice when people recline because I like to catch up on the movies I missed. I can't do that when the screen is RIGHT IN MY FACE." —Amatullah Shaw

"You should give the person behind you a heads-up before reclining. But you paid for your seat, so I'm not mad unless you do it during meal service." —Tafi

"Reclining is fine; everyone paid for a seat to recline. HOWEVER, every decent human should un-recline during meal service. I'm not trying to have the tray table in my chest as I eat. I think they should be woken up by the meal service people to un-recline, regardless. Sorry if that's harsh." —William Frank

"I am going to be so real with y’all, I hate flying, and I am getting on that plane and knocking out the whole time as is my right, but this is why I fly red eyes! Why would you be awake for that? Recline divas!" —Angelica Martinez

"OK, my actual hot take is that I actually don't really think it's that bad when the person in front of me reclines." —KB

"I feel the same, but I think this might be the single instance in human history of short privilege. That said, if we both paid for a seat that reclines, I feel that I cannot in good conscience tell you what to do with it. Airplanes and flying are never comfortable! Do what you need to do." —Evelina Medina

"I don't mind when someone reclines! There could be a lot of reasons they need to be comfortable (i.e., disability, very tall, etc). But I you shouldn't recline during short flights (if possible) and meal times! If it's a super long flight, go for it! —Raven Ishak

"It takes me 30+ hours to travel back home to see relatives, so I'm reclining. I need to sleep, y'all." —Tafi

"I used to have very strooong feelings about people who recline their seats, but the older I've gotten, I've become much more empathetic about people who truly do need to recline their seats for comfort. I don't like when people do it, but i'm way more understanding of it now." —Terry Carter

"Maybe a reclining friendly section." —Jada Gomez

"They should have reclining and non-reclining sections of airplanes." —Abby

"I would be super happy if airlines didn't try to fit as many people in their planes. I think that would REALLY help this situation. Fewer people, more room." —Raven

"The real enemy here is the airlines." —KB

–Letting your hair hang over the back of your seat and covering the screen of the person behind you.

–Playing anything on full blast without headphones.

"They technically aren't doing anything wrong but I reserve special judgement for people that JUMP up as soon as the plane reaches the gate to grab their bags. Just doesn't sit right with me." —William

"Where you going??? Pilot didn't even put the plane in park." —Amatullah

"Not y'all hating on the girlies who wanna stretch their legs too." —Morgan Sloss
