Will be flying on QF from SYD-LAX in Y in November. I'm extremely tall (6'7") and am wondering if anyone has any advice on how to obtain an exit row seat for this long flight.Thanks!</font>
I was about to ask why you wanted an exit row seat, and then I re-read the post and saw your height.

I'm 6'2", and exit row seats **** me to tears on 747s. Since this DVT bull**** started doing the rounds, every ******* and his dog stands in the exit row to do their poofy foot-lift exercises. Tossers.

Give me an aisle seat and the front (and OW airlines always do), and I'm happy. The other disadvantage of the exit row is that you are dependant on an empty overhead locker - no cabin baggage under the, er, nothing in front of you.
