I have made no claim to 'represent' other pax and I acknowledge that the subject of reclining seats is contentious. Nevertheless, I stand by my point that reclining seats on aircraft are more loathed than loved. Even on the recent BNE-PER sector which prompted this discussion, it was remarkable how few pax availed themselves of the option to recline. I have noted similar behaviour on many similar longer sectors too ... I notice stuff like that 😄. Perhaps part of that is down to courtesy and consideration towards others; perhaps many have personal experience of being a recline victim themselves? Whatever the reason, the majority opt not to recline. Check it out when you next fly.
Ask afew other pax their views on this subject too. I have. The vehemence of the responses may surprise you!
No airline should offer a recline option in a high-density economy cabin.
