E+ is better, but it is not *that* much better. But if you would pay for it, I respect your viewpoint. However, I would not shell out cash to fly in a E+ seat; I would simply get on Jet Blue and get the same sized seat with a TV.
I would agree with that. I think it is a disgrace that airlines
stick passengers in seats, which are barely fit for children and then charge
significant amount of money to get an extra couple of inches of pitch.

On the other hand, the main reason I keep flying United is getting E+ for free. How pathetic..
