Reclining airline seat problem receding?
Surveys of airline passengers reveal fully reclining seats are often among the biggest complaints. But it turns out, only a minority of passengers use the option.
Most airline passengers also don’t fully recline their seats and some even ask for permission, according to an Expedia.com survey.
The survey found the majority of flying adults recline their seats slowly or only half way. Another 13% don’t recline at all, while 15% ask permission from those in back of them.
How many simply shove their seats back? The survey found that number at 12%.
