There is zero chance of that happening. In fact, while AA kept wider seats with more space in their extra space section, I am 99% certain UA will stuff the same seats with the same width in E+ and just add a few extra inches of legroom.

It's not about the product and it's not about the customers...it's about Rainey putting a happy face on Hunter Keay while shining his shoes.
