6'4" is absolutely exceptional. You're asking for airliners to cater to what, less than 5% of the population?
Do I get special accomomodations in society for being short? Where's my dating rights lawsuit?
- tehlike 9y agoExceptional where? Netherlands would probably disagree with you.
- shard 9y agoException on planet Earth, obviously.
- harryh 9y agoIn the Netherlands a 6'4" male is in the 94.6 percentile. https://tall.life/height-percentile-calculator-age-country/ https://tall.life/height-percentile-calculator-age-country/
- tehlike 9y agoUS: Tall: 98.9 Percentile Netherlands: Kinda Tall: 94.6 Percentile Kinda Tall is probably not something you'd call necessarily rare. And if you check 6' 2'' (which is my height), US: Kinda Tall: 94.6 Percentile Netherlands: Above Average: 82.2 Percentile So i think my point stands :)
- Dylan16807 9y ago>You're asking for airliners to cater to what, less than 5% of the population? Yes I do expect them to care about tens of millions of passengers being able to fit.
- nnfy 9y agoThey do care. They've shown that it is more economical for private companies to not make special allocations for one subset of the population, especially when customers are free to upgrade. This isn't about airlines being evil, its about your entitlement.
- nnfy 9y agoCorrection, at 6'4" you're in the 98.9th percentile for the U.S. What you're asking for is simply not reasonable or fair to the overwhelming majority.
