An evil way to stop passengers from reclining in the front seat on planes and thus taking up the space of other travelers was revealed by one of the experienced tourists during a radio broadcast on Nova FM in Australia.
Air travel, especially in economy class, is notoriously uncomfortable, but it can turn into hell if the travelers sitting in front claim your personal space by reclining their seatbacks as much as possible. According to the interlocutor, the person sitting in front of her may quickly regret moving his seat if she decides to act badly towards him, reported The Sun.
“When you fly in economy class, the person in front of you is very inattentive and leans his seat back. You know there are vents at the top, they can be rotated. So I just turn them right in his face and turn them on at full power,” the girl told about her method of winning back personal space from an insolent air passenger.
The show’s hosts were impressed by her ‘punishment’, calling it ‘clever’ and ‘cheeky’. They were so taken with the advice of the air traveler that they shared a recording of the call on their Tiktok page and asked users if it was really “the most genius or worst life hack for air travel”.
The video has been viewed almost a million times, and some travelers were very impressed with the idea. “My new move, I’ll use it, my legs can barely fit behind the seats when they’re upright,” some tourists thanked the author. However, others reported that the girl took away the legal right of the passenger sitting in front to lean back whenever they wanted. Another group of users reported that the breeze would not force them to bring the chair to an upright position: “Are you kidding me? I’m always hot on the plane, I’m going to love it.”
Meanwhile, another passenger did something similar and dried her underpants – details here.
