The one I was thinking of is called Karrot.

I dont think karrot has more than a smattering of users, either.

I’m not sure if it was posted elsewhere, but apparently WestJet on its newest planes has reduced the legroom on its budget fares. I’m 6’2, and it was just manageable.

Fill up your 2L water bottle at home, not at the water fountain at the gym!

They are getting eviscerated over this. Absolutely refuse to use Westjet, just always garbage. Years ago from Orlando I was in some cramped seats and basically had a panic attack. I'm small too, the big dude next to me was freaking out as well. Its is jarring, cannot imagine these new ones. Its like being in an MRI for 6 hours. They are rarely cheaper anyway.

Then they will belly ache that passengers are snapping and getting drunk as fata and play stupid.

Been seeing this image around, in relation to WestJet's new seating plan. Been feeling like this for a while now, though.

That image reminds me of flying to Anchorage on an Air Canada Rouge flight. I am pretty evenly proportioned between legs and torso, and at 5'10", my knees were firmly planted in the back of the seat in front of me. Just awful.

I had a seat like that when I took a flight to the Philippines. I'm 6'0 and I basically sat on my jacket to get the correct angle to sit/squat some semblance of comfortable. The top of the seat was basically at my shoulders. I've been in the back of an Integra where the legroom was worse, but at least the seat didn't end before your torso did.

It wasn't too comfy, but I felt bad for a guy who was 6'2/6'3 on same the flight where he too was stand/squatting and the top of the seat basically was in his middle/lower trapezoid. I think he stood as much as possible once the seatbelt sign was off.
