the seats on a rj are most definetely smaller than mainline, and with the smaller cabin it feels like a clown car! I'll take the rare first class mainline ANYDAY

The E170's and the Airbus' are probrably my prefered. The Boings are tight. The 1900 I fly actually has wider seats than the 737.

Look, I don't care what any of you say. Sitting in the middle seat between Lardo the Loudmouth and Granny on the window who smells funny and has a 20 minute bladder is NOT my cup of tea.

I love when the FO's who probbaly worked at Expressjet calls us "kids" or the CA's walk by when we are deadheading on them "for work" and they don't even say hello!!!!!! We are HUMAN BEINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am thankful for CAL, cause without them I would'nt have a flying job, but come on for christsake.....................a lot came from a regional, a lot are scabs, and I bet alot only had 400hrs when they got hired a million years ago, anybody else get this type of treatment???
Sounds like some people are quick to judge others relative to their own exalted position. Hmmm, sound familiar?

HAHA! Yea, those middle seats... don't forget to add the person in front of you making sure the seat is fully reclined and DIRECTLY in your face

Then let her go, a B1900 only has one seat per window, so you are not between 350lbs of bubba reading the paper all sprawled out on one side and mayor mc cheese on the other. Totally unbothered by yourself.

Like I said............SOLITARY BLISS!!!!!!
