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."

I had to really make sure this was not the Beaverton, I prefer sitting at the very back so I do not get the reclining seats. Unless the plane is not loaded enough or whatever the heck I get free upgrades to first class.

Another hack I have to get to the front of the plane is hobble into the airport with a recovering dislocated knee. Make it appear real good maybe relocate your other kneecap a few times in front of the check in clerk!
