No pain, no gain. I also tend to make bookings far enough in advance that I doubt I'll suffer much, from this.

He better keep his nose clean and not flirt with a Copa Express. :D:rolleyes::-:

From the PDA site:


Most seats have a 17.2 inch width and 30 inches of pitch.
Fixed it for them...:D

it would almost certainly have to be including under seat 'legroom' as well, not 'knee room' that would benefit most.

now I like the 800/900s and a/f on the 700s, and I don't mind them charging people to sit in them at all if they are not elite. But I just question the measuring.

Good Mexican place around SFO with belynch and my other half. Great way to cap off the trip.

Night, Box.

I'm shocked you turned down a Devils win at the shark tank for Belynch. Impressive!:D

What's the difference?

I agree that it seems very unlikely there is 10" of extra pitch on those seats.

Good morning Box!

I think one can only purchase through Office Max once. I am doing Office Max, Points.com, and Dining.

There is actually an industry-standard definition for pitch, unlike seat width. Pitch is defined as the distance between a point on one seat and the same point on the seat in front.

Honestly, I couldn't care less, as long as I'm a Gold or Platinum member. I'd be p!$$ed if they were selling those seats at any time, like FL does.

I hope that's the case.

I don't know, I was just pointing out a semantical difference.

We all know that the exit rows offer 3-4" more pitch than the regular rows, yet Scott is claiming 10" of extra legroom. There is something semantically or syntactically off.

Morning, Box.

Devils won? Hadn't heard. It's about time they started that again.

Copa Connection = hilarious. It's very accurate too...my on-time percentage is better than hers. :-:
