B-Tourist

Oh, for fuck's sake.

I hope I don't have any obnoxious people like this sitting next to me on the way to Australia. Then again, most of the passengers will more than likely be Australian, so I don't have much to worry about. I also hope no one behind me does that stupid knee defender thing. I'm happy to only recline my seat a little if it bother's the person behind me, but I literally can't stand having it completely upright, because it feels like it's pushing me forward, and it kills my back. And the idea of putting up with that for fourteen hours - oh, hell no!

I can reassure you as someone who's been on many a long-haul flight lately that I haven't seen anyone using these.

I have almost seen Dutchmen (being the tallest people in the world and all) come close to blows over reclining seats though, so don't assume it's just Americans with such questionable manners.

When are you flying back?

The elastic thingy looks like it wouldn't work on a lot of airplanes. It might need to wrap around (not behind) the headrest in front of you and might interfere with the video screen and tray table behind you. Plus, why?
