    When we went to Florida last October we were given extra leg room seats without asking for them and looking at us we look fine alothough I am 6 foot tall, what you couldn't tell is that my husband had a new heart valve fitted last year and now takes warfarin. These seats were allocated on account of this but like I said we look like a normal family.

    The way I read it was you got charged £50 because it was exit seats,not because of your height.If a 1ft 2in man wanted them seats he would also be charged £50.

    Dont take it so personally.

    And I would pay the 1 foot 2 guy £50 to have a pic with him so it wouldnt actually cost him anything.

    However he wouldnt be allowed to sit in the exit seats anyway because he would'nt be capable of helping people in the case of an emergency, also if he was that small he wouldnt need to buy a ticket as he could pack himself in a bag and save some money, simples!!!!!

    So your 1 foot 2 inches tall have big boobs and have a mega jump button thats helps ya with big doors, hell i'd give £100 to see that, mind you to test your button I would put the money on my head and if you can reach it ya can have it.

    Good thing is with that description your becoming easier to find when you return from your next trip abroad.

    The only seats on an airline that are guaranteed are the pilots (both of them).

    When you select a seat Online it is NEVER guaranteed (for various reasons) until you actually check in.

    Even then as you board-(or whilst you are onboard) the A\C your seat could be changed.

    I sympathise at you being tall when travelling on an A\C but similarly if you should get more room for being tall then why don't shorter people get prefernce when going to the cinema\gigs etc :confused:

    If it was with Virgin...your seat requests chosen through the online seating plan are just that...requests...not guaranteed, and as such can be changed by them at any time.
