the last comment about an american would never dream of leaning back...yes they do. i was on American airlines from ord-lhr and sat behind 2 people that had their seats all the way back during dinner service. not once did they move their seat up. the flight attendant asked them too and they said it was their right to recline their seats, she looked at us and my friend and i looked at her and just shrugged our shoulders thinking (jerks). they had to bend forward to eat so it wouldnt have killed them to put their seats up. i couldnt even recline my seat with the 6ft5 dude behind me...oh well. i thought delta crews were american though. whether they go to germany, russia etc. they usually have a couple that speak the foreign language though.
