two hour flight to London with RyanAir was an absolute nightmare for me, and i'm ~196 cm which isn't even that tall.

it really sucks that my options are either to suffer or to pay more.

    Where the hell are you from where 196 cm isn't tall? We're the same height and I loom over nearly everyone I meet like a fucking giant.

    Netherlands probably. 180 cm is the average for a man there.

    195cm is definitely tall! At 200cm, I can literally no longer fly unless I save up for business class. My legs simply do not fit into a coach seat. Coach hurts. I would have to be a contortionist to attempt coach.

    I think the worldwide average for men is something like 172-175cm so you are definitely tall. That said, it's still abhorrent that some people are not allowed to fly remotely comfortably because of a handful of their genes.

    Easily fixed by not using those scummy twats Ryanair...
