Which airlines offer passengers the most legroom? (infographic)

There's something strange in the air lately. Planes make emergency landings, not because of technical problems, but because of arguments that arise due to encroachments on passengers' personal space. These are quarrels reminiscent of disputes between neighbors, except that instead of tree branches looking at the neighbor's land, we are talking about inclined seats that "look" at the neighbor's legroom.

Too little leg room she became serious a problem in air traffic and airlines have to deal with more and more angry passengers. The shrinking of the space, which forces taller passengers into the fetal position, we somehow already eat, but then there is the convenience, which is called reclining seat.

This is a relief for one, a nightmare for another. That's why they broke up recently "knee guards" (knee defenders), plastic attachments, clogs which prevent tilting headquarters in front of us and prevent "unauthorized" entry to "foreign land". Airlines are fast prohibited, as the passenger has the right to recline the seat.

Economic crisis has also made a deep cut in aviation, and airline providers, in their desire to optimize profits, are not only reducing the number of employees, but also economy class legroom as well. And even though they are to blame, the disputes fall on the shoulders of the passengers because of this.
