Another Day, Another Legroom Skirmish

Yet another flight, this time Delta from New York to Florida, had to be diverted because of 2 passengers arguing over reclining seats.  This issue is turning into a frequent occurrence as airlines keep taking away personal space to squeeze in more seats.

Some passengers believe that the flying experience has really deteriorated.  Whether it is tight spaces, long security lines, surly TSA agents and flight crews to the on board experience, flying isn't what it used to be.  The cattle car feel has provoked travelers trying to protect their space from recliners, armrest hawkers and the deodorant challenged.  The average seat has shrunk along with legroom, while the average size/weight of the traveler has increased.  Perhaps the airlines can come up with a new fee for "minimum personal space".
