We flew an AA 767 JFK - SFO last month. Not having status, I paid to upgrade to Main Cabin Extra with "up to six inches of additional legroom to stretch out and relax" on this six hour flight.
Does this look like stretching out and relaxing?
Neither of us could straighten our legs - a 5'9" man or a 5'2" woman.
AA declined my request for a refund of the $156 I paid for "More Legroom."
Don't tell me I should have expected this from a bulkhead seat. Seatguru said "may have extra legroom" and AA promised it.
It looks very private and relaxing. I would re-frame your thoughts into something more interesting - you essentially got a more comfortable seat than almost all European airlines intra EU business product. So, with this new paradigm, you basically flew a better version of European business class for a low price! See, now your a winner!
