I’m 6’5”. If someone puts the seat back, it physically locks me in and I’ll have to bother you to get up if I have to get up.
I really hate that we keep having this argument, because it’s the fault of the airlines. They’re probably getting one extra row of seats in the plane by shrinking the pitch so much. Fahkers. >

We have ourselves to blame, ultimately. Airlines know from their own massive amounts of research, that as much as we’ll all complain, the lowest price is what matters most to the majority of their customers. >

This is why premium economy exists now. The price can range from reasonable to crazy but it's worth it for flights longer than 5 hours. >

Some airlines are adding indeed additional sections with larger seating in-between Economy-Business .. From what I see pricing range is someplace between 200-400 per ticket more. 
I'm actually flying KLM Premium Comfort+ because the friggin Dreamliners are so horrendously small. In those planes they have totally ruined the window seats because they are way to close to the fuselage. >

Ime experience its usually at least double of what economy is. >

Paris-NY lowest fare economy = 630.- and Premium Comfort 1084.-
Looks like we are roughly both right 400.- more and almost double the price :)
The flight I had booked was 1000.- in economy and 1400.- in Comfort+ but wasn't lowest fares on economy seating >

We can all argue over this until the end of time. But at the end of the day I think airlines have removed so much space from passengers that the entire process is just unreasonable.
I am average in height and a runner so probably below average in width. And I barely fit in a seat. >

I'm 5' 7" and feel crammed on a flight lol I couldn't imagine how miserable it is for someone tall
