The travel-social-media-sphere is buzzing about an incident earlier this week where two passengers brawled over reclining seats.
Both were seated in United’s Economy Plus section. One traveler used a “knee defender” device to prevent the passenger in front of him from reclining her seat. Passenger in front ended up throwing a glass of water on passenger behind. Flight was diverted to Chicago and both were removed from the plane.
But hey, you’ve probably already read the story… now you can WATCH it happen in this funny one minute animation from TomoNews. (I especially like the body breaking in half at about :40)
We asked this question on the TravelSkills Facebook page (and gathered a storm of comments), but here it is again if you care to comment:
Should airlines just lock all seats into the upright position to put an end to these reclining seat wars?
