737-500 (E+) Missing Window
I did a search but did not yield an answer.
Does anybody know which, if any, row on the E+ on configured 737-500's is missing a window? Before the E+ conversion it was row 11 (fourth row back in economy). Now there is one less row before the exit row and I can't tell which row is missing a window now. Maybe the new configuration eliminated this "problem?"

I am sitting on UA1542 LGA-CLE (737-500 with E+). I can unequivocally tell you that row 10, the third row of economy seating, does not hve a widow and no amount of leaning forward or backward will fix that. United should absolutely not be selling E+ seats on this aircraft in 10A or 10E for the same price as other E+ window seats. That's ridiculous.

Sounds like yet another outrage from the "new UA"......
Seriously, sorry that happened to you as I always enjoy being able to look out of the window. You might want to send a comment to seat guru concerning this. Hopefully, they will note this discrepancy on their UA 735 seating chart.

:
I was upset that UA was apparently preventing young, good looking widows from sitting in the E+ section......
Obviously some "shenanigans" here......

BTW, I just checked seat guru's seating chart for the UA/PMCO 735 and they don't even show a row 10 on the aircraft.
However, they do have a note concerning no windows on row 11. I'll assume that seat guru has yet to update their 735 seating chart, which is not too unusual for them....
