If you don't fit in the smallest seat then buy a bigger seat. Someone using the space they paid for is not being an asshole.

Tall people don't choose their height, fat people (mostly) choose their weight.

Edit: also, if the airline can't deal with a certain percentile of the population under their normal product, they should figure out how to make it happen. It's discrimination to not account for tall people

I just did that. And having paid an extra $1000 per seat for 3 seats, the airline (Qatar) gave them to someone else.

Neat. Now what do I do?
