Next time you board a Delta Air Lines flight and try to stretch out and relax, you may find your 💺 won’t recline as much as before.
Delta Air Lines is testing whether reducing the recline of passenger seats on its fleet of A320s will help protect the personal space of fliers. The amount of recline is being reduced about two inches on all seats of 62 planes.
The Atlanta carrier is reducing the recline on all seats on its entire A320 fleet in a test to see if limiting how much your seat will lean back into the personal space of the flier behind you will make the flight more enjoyable for everyone.Although other airlines have restricted seat recline to squeeze more seats into each plane, Delta said the test is not intended to do that.
Delta flies 62 A320 planes, about 7% of its fleet of about 900 planes. The A320 is primarily used on short- and medium-haul flights of one or two hours, according to the carrier.
