Headed back to DFW now. This 175 doesn’t but regardless I think the 175 is underrated plane. F on the A side is great and the bins take rollers long ways.
love this plane. They should replace every godforsaken 319 with these.
My only disagreement with this post is the statement that the E-175 is underrated. I certainly think that the E-175 series is the most comfortable domestic-configured narrowbody in service today in either coach or first (on all airlines), and I think most posters here at least broadly agree. The only major drawback is that it can’t fly all missions. (And is there an oven in F? I don’t know, but I’d there isn’t, that’s a drawback to the chosen configuration, not the plane.)
Of course, that’s from the passengers’ point of view. Economics for the airline are a different consideration that I only indirectly care about! Shame the E-190 didn’t catch on for a variety of reasons.
