[QUOTE=aacharya;16897141][QUOTE=TWA Fan 1;16897067]Every plane flying has ELR, or its equivalent, since these are nothing more than bulkheads and exits row seats.

You know better than to make such a broad statement. There are tons of bulkhead and exit row seats that do not offer extra legroom.

sbm12 was right to correct you on that aspect. No, CO did not 'change'
their seating to offer ELR. But there are still ELR seats that are essentially E+.
Not only that, but--incredibly--there are bulkheads on CO that offer essentially no additional legroom, that they have classified as ELR and are charging for.

As far as exit row seats not having extra legroom, I would dispute your characterization of "tons." In fact the only ones I have ever encountered are in fact on CO (these, they do not classify as ELR, though).

Finally, the most interesting part of this exchange is that sbm12 did not correct me, since (if you read my original post) I clearly stated that CO offers rows with extra legroom at its bulkheads and exit rows.

Where, then, was the correction?
