The crew were excellent, flight good, but the actual space for a person to occupy for 4 hours seems to get smaller and smaller 🤣. I am not overweight, and average height….very uncomfortable,, especially when I couldn’t recliner the seat at all, and the pocket in front doesn’t accommodate a water bottle.
