Overall experience/any other comments:

Booked mainline, got Rouged. I'm 5'11" and spent the entire flight with my knees uncomfortably crammed into the back of the seat in front of me ( the passenger in front made that worse by reclining). There were a pair of knees pushing into my back at the same time - the poor guy behind me was well over six feet, so not his fault at all.
Never again - and I hear that many times at the carousel.
