Alaska airlines recently did a seat-redesign to seats that don't recline, but supposedly have ergonomic improvements. The in-seat cards advertise that the designs are by Recaro (a well-known premium baby car-seat maker).
Didn't seem to make much difference at all: the biggest variance was still absolute space: the "premium economy" seats were no worse, the non-premium economy were no better.
As someone with both lower back pain (a slight recline helps a lot) and long legs (the person in front bumps me) it was pretty much a wash.
- dc_gregory 11y agoIsn't Recaro primarily well known for their racing seats? Rather odd to see the company referenced for its baby seats, is that a local thing for you?
- squidfood 11y agoIn my part of the U.S., it's the "high end European" baby seat brand so that's where I first heard of them, but then I'm not into racing. The AK airline ad card, IIRC, mentioned baby seats (maybe trying to appeal to my demographic, or going for the "cradles you like a baby" theme...)
