The Internet Goes to War Over Reclining Airline Seats

Earlier this week, a flight from New Jersey to Denver was diverted when two passengers got in a fight over reclining a seat.

A 48-year-old man used a Knee Defender, a device that prevents the seat in front from reclining, on the sides of his tray table on United Airlines flight. The woman of the same age sitting in front of him tried to recline, then protested to a flight attendant when she was unable to do so. Even though the attendant attempted to defuse the situation, it escalated: The man refused to remove the device and the woman threw water in his face.
