Ah, but you'd said bigger seats; 738s on all those airlines you'd mentioned are all essentially similar in width in Y (regardless of "+" or "-")- a minimum of 16.5" to a max of 17.8", with WN ranging from 15.5 (presumably in the front) to 17.8" . So when flying Y among your range of airlines, can you fit comfortably when sitting all the way back in your seat?
