Business/first class of course has great leg room on every carrier, but costs like five hundred percent more.

I would guess most people that need it still won't be able to afford it though.
- harryh 8y agoA ton of airlines now offer economy plus seats with roughly 4 inches of extra legroom (and a few other perks) for a nominal fee ($30-$50 generally).
- ip26 8y agoLast I saw they reserve the right to give you a regular seat & keep the money, if they sold too many economy plus on a particular flight...
