    If the person in front of me reclines all the way I can’t put a laptop or tablet on my tray table and can’t hold a book up where I can read it properly. Worst of all the seat jams into my knees which is very painful. Plus I get to smell their head. Wish they’d either put in non reclining seats or limit it to 1-2 inches. It fucking sucks being behind someone intent on reclining.

      They are limited to 1-2 inches lol. They barely move. You must be a very large person. I’m 5’10" and 200 pounds and I’ve never experienced any of what you’re describing when the person in front of me reclines.

          Nope, not saying that. Just saying I’ve been on dozens of flights both domestic and overseas and never experienced that. I’m bigger than average and the person reclining in front of me has never affected my enjoyment of the flight whether I have a laptop or a book. So either I’m unusually tolerant or you’re unusually sensitive. Or big.

            Pick one. Your anecdotal experience is not universally applicable.
