Right now my knees were hitting the front seat, now it will be very hard to sit comfortable in LH intra Europe planes.

I'm really interested to see statement in reality, make something smaller, but things end up being bigger
....completely wrong impression. Seat pitch has completely lost its value as benchmark comparison with new generations of seats on the market. Living space is a new measurment.
By fitting in new thinner seats and moving seat pocket up to the face level, yes it is possible to increase your living space and yes, you will have a more knee room as well.
LH has done a detailed study of what competition does and the most of them have already done the same. AF, LX, AB.......going low-cost does not mean going no-frills!
