    Honestly, I’m pretty tall and if it gives more room for my legs, I’d like to have the option

      Finally more leg room… But now your head bumps against the ceiling and you need to have your head tilted for the entire flight

        I have to lean sideways anyway because my shoulders are too broad and the side of the plane is round.

        There’s so much about flying that sucks as a big person.

        My knees are folded up to my chest. I’m leaning to the right to stay off the fuselage. I can’t be in an aisle seat because I’m in the way of the crew, and I have to lean forward the whole time because someone is in the seat next to me. And that person hates me.

        My dread of the flying experience is why I never go on vacations.

        Same answer as above

        Most people can’t stand outside of the aisle because this area is meant to be seated (so they put storage space above the head). If the area outside the aisle is meant to be stood (not sure of my english), and they don’t remove the storage above the head, people are in their right to luigi those decision makers.

      I’ve always imagined it would be like the seats on a stand-up rollercoaster, which are admittedly pretty comfortable; but if they don’t allow you to adjust the height, it could be hell for both short and tall people
