The dispute over airplane etiquette has once again taken center stage after a mother-of-two went viral for venting her frustration at a fellow flyer who reclined his seat in front of her during a three-hour flight from Cairns to Adelaide, Australia.
Her post, uploaded to TikTok, has already drawn more than 4.3 million views, but also fierce backlash from travelers divided over who was in the wrong.
“When the guy in front of you puts his seat back when he has an empty seat right next to him,” the mother, identified as Norton, wrote. She added that once the seat tipped back, it was “30 cm from [her] face.”
