Southwest said it expects about a third of the seats on its Boeing 737s will offer “extended legroom, in line with that offered by industry peers on narrowbody aircraft.”
"When travelers choose a competitor over Southwest, the airline found in its research that its open seating model was the No. 1 reason for that choice, the carrier said in a release that outlined the changes. It also said 80% of its own customers prefer an assigned seat."
I'm over 6 feet. My knees were up against the seat in front of me in other airlines' coach seats, but fit in a WN seat. I hope the existing seat configuration doesn't get categorized as "extended" with the standard becoming more cramped.
