If your seat reclines in an airplane, you have every right to recline it except during takeoff and landing. This one is controversial.

I’m 6’6” and my knees push against the seat in front of me even when not reclined.

I have a right to be able to travel without you causing me discomfort, and that’s a bit stronger than you having the privilege of getting more comfortable.

If you are the kind of person who asserts this “right” when someone asks you not to, you’re kind of a dick.

Nah homie, I'm also tall. Airplanes are airplanes, book the exit row. Your right to travel comfortably ends with the right to the same for the people around you. If you want more room, pay for the exit row.

New rule: only six tall people allowed per flight.
