It is every American's God-given right to be able to fly LGA-PHL-PIT-CMH-IND-ORD-STL-MCI-DEN-SLC-RNO-SFO-LAX-SAN LOL |

Then again, without de-regulation, no jetBlue, and Southwest would be flying intra-Texas only. I rescind my earlier remark. :) |

It was once commonly 34 or 35 inches, and is now less than 30 inches on some planes.Yup the nice thing about Google flights is they show the number *and* whether it's considered average, below average, or above average. What sucks is people don't care, buy the cheapest ticket then whine about the lack of legroom... or don't pay the $20-50 for the extra legroom seats like economy+. Setting the minimum legroom is a good thing IMO, because then the lowest tier prices will disappear and the people who buy those seats then complain about the legroom will stay home instead. |

I use it to figure out if there's obstructed view, and if the bulkhead seat has enough room for the window / center person to get out without waking up the aisle person (I prefer window but want to walk around at least once an hour). |

Since pitch is a fixed point on one seat to the same point on the next seat, that allows airlines to jam in more seats without impacting kneeroom |
