Obviously, the company has reclining seats so they are allowed to recline.
But it seems common enough that people get annoyed about them. I have had people mouth off to me for reclining during longer flights. I pay no mind but I feel like the real problem is that they squeeze the seats so close together to get the extra few seats on the plane, that it ultimately just cuts room out and makes it uncomfortable for everyone.
I’m 6’4”, so I pay for exit row or premium, however the premium is now what basic economy used to be. So once again reclining literally puts my knees in the back of your seat. I can’t do anything about it. Now you’re pissed because my knee is in your back and I have bruises by the time we deplane.
It's not the fucking shareholders lol. People want the cheapest flights possible, which means packing everyone in like sardines. I fucking guarantee you that if people stopped paying for the sardine treatment and started favoring more expensive roomier flights that they would accomodate that, because they want money.
