Super surprised...?

Anyway the seats in F have less padding, however are quite comfortable. Leg room I feel like is maybe a bit less then the old F seats in the old planes.

I like the spacious overhead feeling you get on these new planes quite a bit.
3 -800's (536, 538, and 539 I believe) were delivered new with the Sky Interior but traditional seats and closets. I'm not sure if any -800's are to be refitted during scheduled maintenance or if retrofitting the BSI is even an option.

Does your seat have a traditional "seat-back" recline or does the bottom cushion slide forward?
