This week, Canadian airline WestJet became one of the first to try to switch the ability to recline into a paid "perk" by announcing that it was reconfiguring 43 of its Boeing 737-8 MAX and 737-800 (BA) planes to have what it classifies as a "refreshed range of seating options."

Flew back from Hawaii on WestJet last year and paid for extended comfort.... I don't regret it purely because it would of been an even shittier experience otherwise.

This is just about greed it's not to make it more affordable. they changed everything last year making it far more expensive for everything. Not to mention their points have gone to shit and their companion vouchers are worthless.

Nationalize the airlines and remove the profit motives.
