I'm 6'1" and I've been uncomfortable on every flight I've ever been on as an adult that was coach...not really special to Spirit.

  I'm 6'2" and have never had a problem flying coach. It's mostly a question of leg length which can very quite a bit.

    Have you flown Spirit? I know tall people that literally do not fit. Their knees are either in the aisle or in their seat neighbor's space. Their seat pitch is truly awful.

  6'3" here and trust me Spirit is different than others. Knee to lower back/butt length didn't allow me to fully sit into the seat without wedging myself into it. It was not a pleasant experience but I was just a couple years out of college and heading to Miami for a football game so for $75 I dealt with it, but I've never flown on them again and were very happy that we had gotten a rental car to share driving back to Atlanta.

    That said, they provide a great value and I have an aunt that used them extensively to be with me grandparents while their health was failing, so apart from being a terrible experience for tall people I’ve very glad they exist.
