A WOMAN has revealed a clever Pringles trick that stops annoying reclining passengers.
When someone puts their seat back on a flight, regardless of whether it's long-haul or short, it can be frustrating. Now, one woman has taken to TikTok to share her antidote.
In the video @clareduggan1982 has her foldable tray laid out.
A Pringle tube stands on the tray in-between the seat and works as a stopper.
If the person in front attempted to recline, the Pringle tube would ultimately prevent this. Thousands of fans have jumped to the comment section to state their view.
One person said: "Clever! But they are entitled to put seat back."
While a second commented: "This is ridiculous and quite frankly, you should be banned from flying."
A third person pointed out an elephant in the room and said: "The tray moves with the seat." This sparked its own debate.
One person replied to the comment with: "Doesn't on a lot of planes. I once got my tablet stuck when someone reclined." And another person added: "They don't otherwise your drink or food falls on your lap while reclining."
The debate as to recline or not to recline is generally an ongoing one.
In June 2024, Skyscanner posted to Facebook and asked: "To Recline or not to recline? That is the question!"
The post racked up dozens of comments.
One passengers said: "Yes of course. But not when meals are being served."
Whereas another said: "In my opinion on everyday holiday flights seat back should not be adjustable.
"I am of average height but on a number of flights I have experienced very little knee movement between my seat and the seat in front. "If the passenger in front had reclined their seat back it would have been unbearable."
While a third said: "Have the decency to ask the person behind first, before making any move." https://www.thesun.co.uk/travel/33010852/woman-pringles-can-reclining-seats-trick/ |

Date: January 27th, 2025 3:12 PM Author: sepia karate the 1 inch of recline is marginally helpful at best for sleep but immensely inconsiderate of the people behind you. bring a neck pillow or figure out another way to get sleep.

People who just unilaterally recline otherwise are shitbags. |

Date: January 27th, 2025 9:29 PM Author: avocado supple meetinghouse trump supporter I really hate when your seat’s recline mechanism is worn out and just sitting in it normally causes it to gradually slip a few centimeters into recline mode. Subtly enough that you don’t really notice until you get up to go to the bathroom and hit the button just to check when you get back.
