Long Haule Plane Seat
Afternoon All,
I am desperate for some help and advice please. If I wanted to go on a long haul flight I would have to pay for an upgraded seat due to all my health issues which I can’t afford and I feel like I being penalised by the airlines is there anything I can do.
I have a nerve impingement in my neck which means for long haul flights my neck wouldn’t tolerate being in such an upright position plus I have Complex Regional Pain Syndrome in 4 different areas of my body which need to be supported if in the same position for too long and that’s without all the medication I take which I need to definitely be able to sleep off. I’ve tried the normal and extra legroom seats and I was in agony and I loathe to pay for a once in a lifetime trip only to spend the week in bed. I’ve tried asking BA and they weren’t interested they said there was nothing they could do for me. I not requiring a luxury seat for the experience I just would like to be able to experience destinations that are long haul and have a semi convenient flight like every other person could.
Any Advice would be appreciated
Thanks
