This October My wife and I will be taking our first trans Atlantic flight. Portland >Dallas>Paris and back. Generally speaking we’re infrequent air travelers, maybe once every 2 years.

We’re both tall-ish. I’m 6’1” and she’s about 5’8”. We’re wondering if we should shell out the $500+ that it will cost to get the main cabin extra for the flights to/from Paris (not the short Portland part).

Traveling via 787-9 (flight 22) and 787-800 (flight 49).

Any intel would be immensely appreciated!

And if folks have any other general tips, or know another place I should post this, please let me know! (New poster to this site, please let me know if there's a better place for this post! Also, if there are tricks to earning upgrades, buying miles for cheaper, anything like that, that'd be great!)

Thanks!
