In a heart beat. You try being 6'1" tall and sitting in a plain for 10 hours. Sucks ass.

Absolutely, I'm only 5'7 and find flights unbearable for leg room. So with my being average height and uncomfortable I can only imagine how you guys feel!

While I am 6' 2", my bigger concern is my broad shoulders. I can deal with the legroom issue but wide shoulders is another thing altogether. Fortunately, I have enough FF miles that I almost always get a First Class bump so that solves the problem. Coach is to be avoided whenever possible!

nope. I usually find the cheapest ticket I can. I'm 6'3" and legroom is never really an issue... just dont jam something under the seat in front of you.

No, I'm not very tall and I'd generally rather be uncomfortable than pay more unless it's going to be excruciating.

I think this option would cause all other seats to have reduced legroom so that a few could have "more"... they'd never reduce the number of seats... Just redo them a little

not the way Jet Blue does it, they had more legroom in a regular seat, and wider seats in general. They charge extra for the emergency exit and bulkhead rows though.
