I must be missing something, because that seems like it would be an effective option. It would increase the flight cost of those seats by 8-12%, and you could charge 20-50% more for them.
- ghaff 11y agoYou've pretty much described United Economy Plus. I'm not sure it's even typically that much of a premium although I'm not sure as I get it as part of my status.
- rconti 11y agoFrom what I've seen, Economy Plus only offers 5" additional legroom and no additional shoulder room. The legroom comes in handy more for ingress and egress (and, I suppose, not having your laptop screen crushed as readily when the passenger in front of you reclines).
- ghaff 11y agoThe parent specifically asked for legroom. You're correct that there's no additional shoulder room. As a relatively tall person, the legroom is nice. I basically never use a laptop in flight.
- joshyeager 11y agoThanks! I have never seen that option, although I don't usually fly United. I'll look for it next time.
