- I'll take an E-175 any day over what the narrowbody mainline planes are becoming (which is basically Spirit/Allegiant) -- (edited) - ty97 Sep 29, 10:16
Seats on the wings for the ultimate thrill ride! -- nm - budice Sep 29, 10:14
How are they going to make the planes bigger? -- nm - Mop Sep 29, 10:13 1
- 30 inch seat pitch in coach. Smaller lavs. Probably less galley space. -- nm - ty97 Sep 29, 10:15

These are going to be on the wings right? -- nm - pmb Sep 29, 10:09
A few years ago, their 737-800 had 150 seats. Now they all have 160. Starting in 2019: 172. -- nm* - ty97 Sep 29, 10:08
So they're extending and widening the planes, too, right? - ReluctantCynic Sep 29, 10:08 4
- They are installing, thinner, lighter, more comfortable seats that make it seem like you have more legroom! - ty97 Sep 29, 10:09 3
  - So the prices are lower, right? -- nm - psilotum Sep 29, 10:16 2
    - hahahahahaha. The current lowest fares are being reclassified, bit by bit, as Basic Economy. - ty97 Sep 29, 10:18 1
      - Instead of that scheme, they should just reclassify by the average number of hours it will take a traveler to develop deep vein thrombosis. - ReluctantCynic Sep 29, 10:20
