I’ve been flying since 1970 and I can tell you, you get what you pay for. The price of a coach seat then would buy you first class today once you convert to 2019 dollars. Coach today is equivalent to a bus ride in 1970.
It is especially a problem if you are large around the middle and you want to put your tray table down. The person in front reclines and you are cut in two.

For domestic flights, yeah, they’re not worth talking about. The international flights aren’t that much better, but they are still an improvement.

I really don’t think airplane seats meet anyone’s definition of “comfortable” even if they do recline.

Also movie theaters. Those huge reclining seats look luxurious, but they’re not really.

I find flying and the airport experience altogether stressful and unpleasant. I don’t miss it one bit.

Reminds me of a flight to Germany years ago, when a little French girl spent 7 hours kicking mine. Her Mom pretended not to understand my distress…

According to reports, airline seats are only large enough for a moderately large child and only if he/she doesn’t breathe.

You recline them if you hate the person behind you and want to pin them in their seat for the whole flight,
