AA Announces Main Cabin Extra Legroom

Reminds me of the old MRTC info graphics.

I seem to recall that they started this in 2000 after the TWA acquisition as well :) They had the ExtrAA legroom in Coach... They removed it in 2003 I believe...

They did do that, but what they did was the "more room in coach thing" this will be a few rows in the main cabin, towards the front of the coach cabin. It's not free though, they will charge a lil extra depending on the miles your flight is.

So now they are going back to the seat spacing before Bob Crandall issued a fiat that all coach passengers should be 5' 2" and 105 lbs.

I'm happy to see AA brining back "More Room In Coach"!!! It can't come back fast enough!!!

who cares when you're 234million in the hole for January
