The internet is split. The better question: Why can’t airlines solve the legroom problem?
Responses to the video are ... divided. On one hand, if the woman knows the seat behind hers doesn’t recline, it’s not cool to lean back when the man doesn’t have that option. On the other hand? Repeatedly punching the seat is weaksauce. Just take it up with the airline, guy.
If 31 inches is the high end of typical range, let’s say the seatback is about four inches thick. The average American man is 5-foot-9, and let’s estimate his inseam length is about 32 inches. Our thighs are generally longer than our calves, so let’s say 17 inches and 15 inches. When seated, there’s probably another 8 inches of folded torso .
Any concept for seating is working against massive airline pressure to keep packing more seats into the same airplane, so the solutions to these problems are all Band-Aids, not cures. I’m not persuaded that a seat with even less padding or one thaton any axis. But there are some things you can do to increase your comfort or decrease the discomfort of those around you.. This is a set of clamps that prevent the seat in front of you from reclining.
