I'm not sure if someone has posted this but i wanted to forewarn the community that untill the measures are relaxed, the IFE being turned off for flights to USA on newly configured aircraft will also affect seat functions. ie, you cannot recline/adjust the seats as the seat controls are built into the IFE. This means you will literally sitting upright like myself throughout the flight.
What flight were you on? How long were you upright?
