If you don't have room after someone reclines, just recline yourself.

knee defender is dumb as gently caress


but all US airlines are complete poo poo and i hate flying domestically. i happily fork over extra money when flying internationally to fly with a decent loving (non-US) airline.

but seats are like specifically curved in such a way so even if you recline the person behind you still retains all their leg room even if it is a bit more claustrophobic. why are people such gigantic faggots about it, don't like it? recline your own seat and get a bit more space

It's like half of these motherfuckers have never been on a plane.

Just bring a quarter inch Alan Key on board with you, detach the seats in front of you from the floor and make as much leg room as you like. You're an American, you're entitled to take whatever you want by force.

Seats only go like 3 inches back at the top, so at knee height they only take like 0.25 inches what is the problem?

All US airlines ban the knee defender. I look forward to your arrest by an air marshall for refusing to follow air crew instructions, a violation of federal law, like the Miami guy who got booked in jail in Boston.

Knee defenders are stupid poo poo. I don't care if someone reclines. What I do care about is that on every seat there's a touchscreen on the back and people won't use the loving handset to use it. They'll just pound away at the screen all flight long. Taking an international 8-hour flight? Hope you like someone poking you in the back of the head the whole way!

So I'm currently planning a trip overseas(it's going to be a 14h flight). Economy is going to cost me about $1.1k.


The next level up from there would cost $4.4k.



I'm annoyed about the 1.1k too, because last time I did this it cost me $500 in like 2008


Oh well.

Just in case people are wondering: Knee defenders are little plastic things you stick in the hinges of the seat in front of you on an airplane, so the guy in front of you can't recline back all the way.

Where have you flown that a kid doesn't get their own seat that had to be paid for? I've never flown with a kid before, but I'm pretty sure they need their own seat(plus a carseat if they are young enough for that).
