I am 6'6" and just can not sit those awful CO coach seats unless I am in the exit row.

I would hope that DL would match me to the same level (Plat) and was wondering if there are any other ex-CO flyers who have made a similar switch? If so, are you happy with the move?

I live in western NJ so would primarily fly out of EWR or ABE and have to connect. Hate the idea of losing all my direct flights on CO out of EWR, but excruciating pain more of a motivating factor!

Any advice woule be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
