I think there is plenty of legroom in every row and I am six foot tall, there was several inches to spare. People just sit with really bad posture, but the "cushions" are TERRIBLE! I'd almost rather stand the whole flight, they are so hard! We should start selling baseball stadium seat cushions... actually that probably is already in the works, and was the plan all along!

I have only been in the new seats for a short flight, but I thought they were firm but ok. A 5 hour flight might be pretty rough, though.

However, I disagree about your comment on posture. I thought the new seats actually lead to much better posture as they actually have lumbar support. The old seats were like sitting in a banana, I hate them. To each their own, I suppose.

The legroom is nice and no one can lean back into your space, which is nice, so long as you don't plan on sleeping...

Anyone know the seat pitch on our new slim line compared to spirit?

Heard from a friend that they are telling new hires a base at the end of the year?

I'm sure Indigo will make BANK if they are five seconds behind. I've got a feeling they wouldn't mind either way.

Sat in the new seats for 4 hrs and they weren't that bad. I prefer them to having someone crushing my knees because they don't give a crap about the person behind them. I am sure the FAs love not having to tell everyone to put their seat backs up multiple times.

As for bases, the most recent gouge I heard was probably no different than what everyone else already knows. "It could be one of five cities, DC, PHL, ATL, MCO, CLE? But CLE not likely". "The numbers will tell us what city it will be and we will announce it one quarter before we open it." Probably end of the year but who knows? I'm guessing where ever we have the most flights would probably make the most since.
