A seat for an airplane is provided that makes it possible to absorb, in the event of a frontal impact of the airplane, the rocking to which a passenger in a seat located behind the seat is subjected. The backrest of the seat is provided with a reinforcing strip placed behind the backrest. The seat portion can also be provided with a second reinforcing strip placed under the seat portion. The reinforcing strip includes knitted or woven textile. In the case of knitting, the yarn used has a high tenacity, and the knitting stitch can advantageously be the Jersey stitch. In the case of weaving, the weft and warp threads have approximately the same tenacity.
