Have coach class airline seats gotten smaller to squish in more people than before? I was 'sardined in' on a flight from CA to MA; my computer bag fit only halfway under the seat so I had to put my feet on it. The guy in front of me was very tall (poor thing) so he had to put his seat back. So I flew for 4 1/2 hours in the fetal position. All I kept thinking about was to try to wiggle a bit to avoid deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Flying has become hazardous to your health.
