The 757-200 introduced an interior that became standard on all narrow-body Boeing aircraft (including the Boeing 737 Classics) until the release of the Next Generation 737, which introduced an updated interior borrowing elements from the Boeing 777-style interior. The 757 interior offers up to a six abreast layout (3+3) with a single center aisle.[4] The 757 could be ordered with either four exit doors on each side, or three exit doors plus four overwing window exit doors.[4]

If I am a cup maker, I'm interested in making the best cup I possibly can. My effort goes into that cup, not what people think about it.

In the late 1990s, Boeing was considering possible variants of the 757, which for 18 years had been the only Boeing narrow-body jet not to receive a stretched variant.[8] Rumors of a long-range -200X and stretched -300X circulated at the time, but no formal announcements had been made.[8] In 1996, Boeing finally announced the stretched 757-300 program at the Farnborough air show.[8] The program was intended to be the shortest development program in Boeing history, with 27 months targeted between launch and certification.[8] The 757-300 was launched with an order for 12 aircraft from Condor Airlines.[11] The first 757-300 was rolled out on May 31, 1998, and completed its maiden flight on August 2, 1998.[11] Following regulatory certification in January 1999, the aircraft entered service with Condor on March 19, 1999.[11]

If you don't trust the pilot, don't go.
