If I am not upgraded, I ALWAYS, ALWAYS get an exit row seat (if possible) for the legroom. To me, the lack of legroom (and I'm 5' 11": not super-tall) of a regular coach seat is the single most uncomfortable part of flying.
humm...Not sure FAs will allow it and will likely ask you to put it under seat in front of you or in overhead locker since in theory, exit doors must be kept free at all time.
