The Taylor flight fiasco sent people online into a fierce debate over whether you should recline your seat while traveling.

Some viewers took his side, adding that he should be able to feel comfortable in the seat he paid for.

One person said: ‘For those who say you shouldn’t have reclined your seat. She paid for it. She has every right to do so.

Someone else added: ‘All seats recline. Pay more if you need more legroom.’

Another user wrote: ‘Okay. I mean, it’s a long flight, what do you expect? She is also free to recline her own seat.

A fourth person commented: “I would have yelled at him in front of everyone.”

One user added: ‘You deserve to be comfortable. To recline or not to recline depends on the support of the seat. My comfort is my comfort!’

‘Is the function there for us to use? Why else would it be possible? Lay down all day,” one commenter wrote.

‘You paid for a reclining seat, so recline that bad boy!’ Another intervened.

“If the seats weren’t meant to recline, they wouldn’t recline,” wrote one Reddit user.

Someone else chimed in: ‘I’ve literally never heard of anyone not reclining their seat, that’s what it’s for. He would have leaned me back.

“Personally, I’d be embarrassed to have to recline my seat,” someone else said.

‘No. The seats in economy class are very narrow and crowded. It is rude to recline in someone else’s space. I’m sorry. Hang in there, or upgrade to business class/extra legroom if you want more comfortable flights,” said another user.

One social media user wrote: “I love how they make it clear that they don’t care if they are crushing other people’s knees as long as they are comfortable.”

“I don’t recline because it’s extremely uncomfortable for the people behind me,” said another user.

This is not the first time travelers have sparked furious debates over airplane etiquette.

Just two weeks ago, a frequent flyer caused a stir after showing off a “dangerous” travel trick in which she wore her seatbelt around her ankles in a bid to sit more “comfortably” during the flight.

In the past, many passengers also wondered if they should change seats while traveling.

In December, a frequent flyer issued a public service announcement to his fellow travelers about swapping seats after he found himself in a nightmarish experience in which he was forced to move five times when he reluctantly gave up his spot to another passenger.

The unknown man took to Reddit to tell his “permanently changed” seat-changing story. [his] I care about being nice and swapping seats with someone.

Another frequent flyer previously revealed he refused to swap his window seat with an “entitled” passenger who wanted to sit next to his wife.

The anonymous woman took to Reddit to share how she refused to move to the middle seat during an 11-hour flight from New York to Cairo, Egypt, so the man sitting next to her could sit next to his wife.

The anonymous woman shared her story on the social media platform as a way to rant about the man in a thread titled: ‘TitledPeople,’ leading others online to criticize the man for asking someone else to move to a lower quality seat so he could be happy.

The denial comes months after a man sparked furious debate when he refused to give up his first-class seat to his boss, despite using his own credit card points to do so.

In the past, DailyMail.com’s Jaci Stephen has even offered her point of view, confessing that she “absolutely refuses” to change seats, no matter how angry the passenger requesting the change may be.
