As I'm 1.95m, I assumed I'd not be able to touch the ends, however I felt cramped in the seat. I've been on CX's and AA's similar seats and was very impressed by what QR has done with the design, just the length was off.

Was it just me?

I like the QR A380 seat infinitely better than the CX A 330 seat. It is wider, and length is not a problem to me as I am a mere 1.80 m. The A 380 electrical armrests are heaven compared to te AA/CX ones which invariably get stuck somewhere by the belt or overflowing bed linens.
