actually, coach on a wide body has the same coach seat as a 737. Coach is coach.
OK. 757 seats suck equally. That better?

Try the bus seat sometime if you want to feel the difference. Unfortunately, the BEST narrow gauge coach seat out there is on the EMB 170-190.

Back when UAL was a decent airline that still cared about their pax, we used 767-200's in the LAX-NYC and SFO-NYC markets. Much 'mo betta' and passengers actually booked on UAL because of it. Imagine that today.

I stand by my point, a transcon in a 37 (or 57) is pretty much misery in coach. Ditto for Hawaii and European flying.
