Flying While Tall

I am writing this from Budapest after a 9 hour flight to Oslo, a 4 hour layover in Oslo and a 3 hour flight to Budapest. The amount of time on planes isn't really an issue but I am always reminded of how much larger of a person I am than normal people when I step onto a plane.

First theres ducking to get through the airplanes main door, ducking beneath the exit signs and finally squeezing into a regular seat. This is only a real problem when you try to sleep. There is just no way to put your legs when they're jammed against the seat in order to get comfortable. However, it is a small price to pay for winding up in Budapest 20 hours after you left home.
