Always enjoy your trip reports, yflyer! Just wanted to ask how you found TAP's non-reclining economy seats? These days I find that I almost always recline my seat as soon as I am able to even on the shortest flights. This is especially so when I want a good rest on board, so I can't imagine not being able to do so

Regarding the TAP slimline non-reclining seat, I found it fine for a short haul flight -- no worse than any other narrowbody. I probably wouldn't be too happy on flights longer than 2 hours in this type of seat, though.
On a related topic, I am really not a fan of 4 or 5 hour flights on a narrowbody, whether an A320 or a 737. Even when the seats recline, these flights are just too long to feel comfortable in a narrow single-aisle tube...

Originally posted by Jumbojet Lover View PostAs someone based in North America traveling fairly frequently between both coasts, transcontinental narrowbody flights are an unfortunate reality, difficult to avoid. I've resigned myself to that misery (on US carriers in economy no less). That's nothing though, compared to being on a regional jet for more than 3 hours - imagine that!

As for 3 hour RJ flights, those can't be too comfortable either! That said, I haven't yet flown on Embraer RJ's so I would probably try to get myself on one of those just to check out the equipment, if the opportunity arises...
