Nearly 200 Posts on this Thread and 30 on the other Thread (same topic) and I have been struggling to find \a sensible Post! Ah well, that's PPRuNe!
A few days ago I had a thoroughly enjoyable flight on a B787. During the cruise we had a friendly hat with one of the cabin crew. Amongst many other topics, this LATAM incident was brought up and the seat issue had only just got into the news (we read it in the departure lounge). They had been briefed on the matter before the flight ad being aware of the info that they were given, sensible precautions were being taken. That real world does not fit in with the 230-odd pages of nonsense that there have been here.
We have another flight booked in a B787 next month and we are looking forward to it.
