A frequent flier has recently confessed her ‘evil’ act of revenge that she inflicts on those who recline their seats too far back on an aeroplane.

Dialling into Nova, an Australian radio station, a woman has revealed her response to ‘inconsiderate’ passengers who interrupt her comfortable flight by deciding to recline their seats ‘all the way back’.

The unnamed woman spoke about the plane hack via the ‘Fitzy & Wippa’ show.

“When you’re flying economy, and the person in front of you is very inconsiderate and reclines their chair all the way back… You know the air-con vents in the top?” she asked hosts Ryan ‘Fitzy’ Fitzgerald and Michael ‘Wippa’ Wipfli.

“[Well] you can swivel them around. I swivel it right on their face and turn it up full blast.”

When this happens — the reclining guest apparently has two avenues that they could go down to resolve the matter.

The first is either suffer the blast of icy air omitting from the women’s air-con vents, or they can move their seat back into an upright position. Genius, right?

The revelation of this slightly-evil hack was met with an impressed reaction by Fitzgerald who remarked: “That’s a belter and they can’t complain.”

Wipfli echoed his co-host's sentiments by saying that the radio caller had really ‘outdone herself’ in her smart yet deadly methods of revenge.


Following the chat on Nova, footage of the discussion went viral on TikTok. Lots of users flocked to the comments to applaud the women’s genius plane hack.

One user wrote: “I’ll be using this as my legs barely fit behind the seats even when they’re upright."

Another user shared their own reclining seat horror story. They wrote: “I had the most rude people in front of my partner and I on an international flight where it was dinner time and the guy in front was asked to move his chair forward so my partner could eat.

Not everyone agrees that reclining your seat on a plane deserves a 'revenge' ice blast.

“To which his response was ‘Nah I don’t give an F, the guy behind me can eat off his knees for all I care.’"

However, not everybody thought that the caller’s methods were needed. One TikTok user commented: “If both people recline, the distance between them remains exactly the same. Besides, it only reclines like two inches!”

Another said: “How is reclining one's seat inconsiderate? When you pay for the seat, you pay for all the features.”

A different user agreed, writing: “There is no way I am going to travel my whole flight in the upright position.”
