Thanks CABNcrew.

My interpretation of this thread, is that, "It's my right, so to hell with any one else, so it inconveniences them, tough luck"

My personal solution to kids running around, is a well placed foot in the aisle!

On a recent flight on VA we were put in seats that didn't recline, not good, but that's the way the cookie crumbles.

The passenger in front put his seat into full recline and ignored my polite requests to reduce the amount of recline, also ignored the FA's requests.

He was a South African and tried the old "I don't understand", unfortunately for him 2 of us can speak Africaans, so we had a conversation about teaching him some manners when we landed. He immediately called the FA and said we had been threatening him, to which she replied that she had been standing next to us and had heard no such thing (she could not understand the language at all, so was not lying)., but if he felt like that, then there was a spare seat at the back, he took up her offer.

Why are a few people so selfish, a little bit of give and take hurts no-one
