Not only recommended for tall people but also great for avoiding toddlers spending 7hrs kicking the back of the seat in front of them...their legs can't reach far enough

Do a search of the forum as well, maybe, as there was a great long thread about this subject a month or two back - plus some probs with TC??

Flew with zoom before and their seat pitch is 31" which is actually the same as BA so not great but can just about fit (as long as the guy in front doesn't recline). Flew Thomas Cook which was great as the pitch is 35". If you can upgrade then I would and I personally would not ever go near Air Transat (seat pitch 28" I think)
Those few little inches make all the difference
