I've been meaning to post this for a while, but this post
and another recent experience recently prompted me.
Do you like chatting to your neighbour - known or unknown - on flights, particularly longer ones? On a recent overseas flight with me in 1C on B737, the guy in 1D didn't stop talking to his seat mate for an entire 4 hour trip. Just on and on and on, even during the meal. Now, nothing wrong with that - he wasn't particularly loud - but I have had long haul marathon talkers near me whose volume could have gone down by half.
I can't imaging filling up 4+hours with continuous talk and I certainly wouldn't put up with unsolicited chat from a neighbour if I wasn't interested.
