most airlines.

Everyone knows when you can get up out of your seat -- the seatbelt

goes off.

But how soon can you recline? ...


If you're sitting in front of me, you can try it whenever you want to,


because

you won't be able to do it in any case.

You're right. It's not. As long as you don't try to recline the
seat, the topic is ended. 'Nuff said. Case closed. Let's all move
on now.

I've been on some foreign flagged carriers where they didn't care if the
seat was up or down for landing and take off, one even let people keep their
trays down for landing. Totally shocked at that one.

. The FAs on every airline I've ever
flown are absolutely strict about seats being upright for takeoff.

I observed this on S7.

Okay, next flight I'll make a point of asking if it's you.

And then I'll recline.

Sheesh.

Are you serious? The horror.

Well, you can try it, but your seat won't move back at all. I
hope you keep trying for a long time. It's fun when that happens.
