This may sound contrarian, but I'm happy that airlines are shrinking seats, and adding a few rows of "Economy Plus" for people that need/want their space back. Flight prices have been falling for the last decade, in part due to these smaller seats, and I've been able to travel much more than I otherwise would have as a result. I'd love to have a bit more space, but I'll take my $600 round-trip tickets from SF to Europe over a marginal increase in comfort any day.
