WELL FROM MY EXPERIENCE .....
The customer service teams at most of the uk charter carriers will on production of a doctors certificate happily allocate you a seat with a little extra room.... This of course means those travelling with you will need to shell out the extra dosh if they wish to sit with you or risk being split up.
And I know the charter division of 1 of the largest UK scheduled carriers will do this for you happily !.
The problem is at what point do you say yes that person is extra tall and that person isnt there has to be a a given height and I know that at the above airline that height is 6'5".
Of course youd be surprised at the number of 6'5" PAX who call up never to be heard of again when asked for a Dr's Certificate.
