Furious plane passenger sparks fierce debate after getting into a screaming match with a fellow traveler as she accused them of ‘PUSHING her seat repeatedly’ when she reclined it

A woman has reignited the debate over airplane etiquette after she got into a shouting match with a fellow passenger as she accused them of “repeatedly pushing her seat” when she reclined it.

TikTok user Graham Nancarrow was the first to upload a video of the fighting to the video sharing platform.

And although he has since deleted it, someone named Ian Miles Cheong reposted it on was wrong.

It’s unclear when the incident occurred or where the flight was headed, but in the video the unnamed woman could be heard yelling at the man behind her, “She’s been pushing my seat the entire trip.” You’ve seen it. You know she did.”

“I can move my seat back,” the woman repeatedly shouted at her fellow traveler.

‘She can move her chair back. You don’t have to kick it repeatedly just because you want more space,” Ian captioned the clip.

The video attracted thousands of comments from viewers, some of whom agreed with Ian and sided with the woman, and others who said it was “an unspoken thing” that you shouldn’t move your seat towards the back of the bus because it ‘so tight and all tight.

‘Putting your seat towards the back of the bus is an unspoken thing that most people don’t do. It’s really the airlines’ fault because they made the coach so cramped and cramped that moving the seat back shouldn’t even be an option,” one person commented.

“I mean, if she wasn’t allowed to recline her seat, why was the seat adjustable?” someone else asked.

‘They didn’t add the seat adjustment button for nothing. It actually cost the airline extra money to offer this feature, it’s meant to be used,” another agreed.

“Kicking the chair is just a whiny childish move,” read a fourth tweet. A fifth said: ‘She’s telling the truth. But it’s also true that it sucks that the person in front of you moves their seat back.’

“That extra two inches of lean on most airplanes doesn’t do anything. Airlines should get rid of lounge chairs on coaches,” another viewer suggested.

One person praised the woman for “standing her ground,” while another called her “pathetic” for “hindering” the person behind her.

There has long been a debate about whether it is acceptable to recline your seat on an airplane.

In June, an etiquette expert weighed in on the subject and heavily criticized those who put their seats back on flights.

Etiquette enthusiast Diane Gottsman previously told USA Today, “Unless you are in a seat with extra legroom, or in first class, it would be inconsiderate to tilt your seat back.”

Another expert pointed out that it is especially rude for someone to work on a laptop or eat a meal on their tray.

A few weeks later, a flight attendant who goes online by @ichbinvin took to TikTok in July to share his thoughts on the argument.

‘I know there will be people in the comments saying, “I paid for my ticket, I can do whatever I want.” Yeah, even though that might be true, that doesn’t make you an asshole,” he said.

He explained that before deciding whether or not to recline your seat, you should consider two “very important things”: the length of the flight and the time of day.

“If you’re on an hour-long flight in the middle of the day, you don’t have to recline your seat,” he continued. “But if you take a one-hour flight at 5 a.m., it could be done.”

He went on to say that if your flight is longer than three hours, you can recline your seat at any time.

Anything less than that, he added: “You have to read the room and see what’s going on.”
