Is there that much more room in the exit row on these RJ145's? I know with 2 A, I at least got the aisle and it was less crowded. What do you FT's think?

When forced I go with 12A. But the best tactic is to book away from the RJ, I don't like the TUS-IAH ride on the toothpaste tube. I see during some periods in the fall this isn't possible: 4 daily TUS-IAH services, ALL ERJ! But then, sometime in the winter, the schedule ramps up to 1*733, 3*735 including the seasonal EWR redeye service, and one RJ.

There's always the solitary daily redtail 319. It's OK leaving TUS but returning is no fun. Departing anywhere east means a 4am reveille to make the connection to 884 in MSP.

So. 4am reveille or the COEX RJ (12 A or not)? That is the question.
