Seat kicking, screaming kids and bad body odour were also high on the list.
More than 730 people took part in the online survey, which was conducted by TotalTravel.com between December and January.
Inconsiderate reclining was voted the top turn-off by one-third of respondents.
"There's nothing worse than someone reclining their seat on a plane while you are eating and your food and drink ends up in your lap,'' TotalTravel.com global marketing manager Paul Fisher said. ..."

As long as its not meal time i recline ! (And as i love my front row of whY i think i will always have somebody behind me, oh well thats life i guess)
Yep, people should have a shower ! But hey 20 hours on a plane some people are going to smell that just happens.
Future seat designs will go a long way to eliminating this issue anyway as the seat will sort of slide down inside a shell rather than actually recline. Yet to try a plane that has these yet but they may be good they may not be good, only time will tell how people like them.
No real surprises here, though there certainly are some other annoying habits.
Seat reclining certainly polarises peoples' opinions. I have no problem reclining outside of meal service times, though I don't normally recline to anywhere near the maximum (I don't have an issue with people reclining to the maximum, as this is what the airline allows - if I had an issue, then logic would dictate that my beef is with the airline, not the pax).
However, reclining during meal service is rude, and should lead to another annoying habit mentioned in the survey, seat back kicking!!
What annoys me, is when you have a 2.5 hour flight which is not really one where you would need to recline, that is during the day, and the moron in front of you does it the entire trip!
No real surprises in the survey results. Has been discussed on AFF in the past.
If I manage to snap up the first row in economy I never recline. The only time I may recline is when I am not in the first row of economy and the inconsiderate person in front has decided they will recline for the duration of the flight. I have been known to kick the seat in front if it is occupied by rude and inconsiderate recliners.
Nothing is worst than the little "s..ts" kicking the seat from behind and the parents drinking the wine and doing nothing about it.......................
