Flying in economy class can sometimes feel more like a clown car than an airplane. Especially when you’re 6”1 like I am.
But no matter how tall you are, sitting cramped on a crowded flight for a few hours is never fun. Cue the cacophonic soundtrack of jet engines, and you’re all buckled in for your stressful, unenjoyable journey in the sky! So which is the better upgrade, Extra Legroom or Active Noise Cancellation? I claim that silence is more valuable than space in these situations, and turns out I’m not alone in my thinking.
