A recline lockout device is disclosed. The device includes one or more modular lockout assemblies including a housing, one or more levers, and one or more shafts. The device may include one or more lockout cables coupled to actuator assemblies of the aircraft seats and a lever. Each actuator assembly may be configured to position the aircraft seats between an upright and reclined position. The device may include one or more lockout control mechanisms configured to cause the one or more lockout cables to translate. Upon translating, the first lever or the second lever may be configured to translate to cause the first lever to disengage from the second lever. Upon disengaging the first lever from the second lever, the first recline lever may be configured to disengage from the second recline cable to prevent the actuator assemblies from actuating between the upright and reclined position.
