Last flight is a Delta 737-900ER from SEA to DTW. I'm looking at Row 10 seats A and B. Extra leg room?

Been in Row 10 of the 739 at least a half-dozen times.

Extra leg room? Yes.

Narrower seat? Yes.

If the FC passenger in front of you reclines, it will be difficult/impossible for you to extend your PTV which is stored below the arm-rest. Check out photo #13 here.

If this is a red-eye, you'll be fine because you'll be polite and keep your PTV off anyways :-)

One thing to keep in mind on the 757...there are no overhead bins in that row. Your stuff will likely be stored several rows behind you. It will make getting off difficult as you'll have to wait for people to hand you your bags, or you'll have to wait until the rows leading to your overhead bin are clear.

We have FC all the way from DTW to HNL. I'd have to sell a kidney to afford FC for the return trip home.

I'm in 77A and my wife is in 77K, so she'll be thrilled with the view.

Those are the best seats on the aircraft.

CR9 F Class Advice
 
Have an upcoming CR9 F class segment - obviously I want the single side but is any seat better or worse than another seat on the single side ? Thanks for any info !

Why would you say "obviously"? I ALWAYS choose the "2" side, because the under-seat space in front of the "1" side is pretty tight, and I usually need it.

Also, even though I prefer aisles, lately, I have been taking the window seat on the "2" side, because the under-seat space at the window seat is wider that the aisle seat, and those flights usually aren't that long.

Does anyone here have experience with seats 1A and 1B in FC on a Delta Boeing 757-200 (75X) w/ Live TV? Nice legroom?

So, I ended up changing my flight home to route through ATL. I'll get two 747 legs! Delta made the change without the usual $200 trip change charge. That was cool. No FC on the way home, but we do have EC. I'm in 22A and 22B. Hope the legroom is nice...

The legroom is nice in EC row 22 on the 74S. There is also the aroma of a long flight from being close to the lavatories.

We just arrived home from our Hawaiian vacation. The 747 was as amazing as I had hoped. The plane wasn't wide as I had imagined, but it was way longer. You can really tell how much more of the runway the plane uses to take off. I was starting to get worried. The crew in UD FC were great. The pilot invited me in to pop off a couple pictures before takeoff. So glad I was able to fly this magnificent plane before they disappear forever. Thanks for all the advice back in February. Here's one of the shots I took...
