In the case of economy class syndrome, passengers sit in cramped seats for long periods of time with poor blood circulation.
Sitting for a long time leads to poor blood circulation, which can lead to various health problems, such as low back pain, cervical spondylosis, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, etc. In addition, economy class passengers may also experience discomfort due to low oxygen and tight spaces. Due to the small seat pitch, the legs cannot be extended, and prolonged bending can also lead to muscle fatigue and varicose veins. Under the influence of economy class syndrome, people may experience psychological problems such as anxiety, depression, and insomnia, among others. These problems are often exacerbated by the length of the flight.

Passengers should also pay attention to their physical condition, stand up and move from time to time, or move properly in the seat to maintain a certain amount of blood circulation and good health.
