      So for pretty much as long as I can remember, I've had an issue with leg room whenever I fly. Some planes are horrible, like pretty much anything United or US Airways. However, there is one line (at least) I've flown before that always had more leg room, even in coach. I want to say it was Delta or Jet Blue, but I can't remember. I'm 6'4" and can't afford first class. Suggestions?

      Thanks,

      I'm in the same situation as you are... never enough leg room. Pay the extra money for an exit row seat. If you can't do that do leg exercises while on the plane.

        I usually try to. They just sell out fast.

          I think that Southwest has some extra leg room.

            I think it was Jet Blue. @IRJ showed me SeatGuru and Jet Blue seems to get great ratings. I can also get good prices on flights through them, so that's probably who I'll end up flying with.

              JetBlue is my favourite domestic way to fly now that AirTran got swallowed by SouthWest.

                That's how I'll go then. Thanks!

                  Jet Blue does not fly to/from STL, so that put them out for me.

                    Hey, this topic was started because of me 📄

                    I fly either Delta or Jet Blue. I like Delta because its only $19 tto $29 to upgrade to an exit row. If you are tall like me and @thanksajdotcom then you want an exit row. You can really stretch your legs there.

                      As I shared with @thanksajdotcom , its always better to book one way flights rather than roundtrips even if both flights arent the same airline.

                        Out of Roanoke Regional Airport they only do prop planes which have horrible leg room. They seat maybe 26-30 people and are like small buses with wings. So the first and last part is always uncomfortable for me at 6'3". Once you make a connecting flight in a bigger city and can pay extra for something better I've never had a problem with leg room on those. which has been a mixure of southwest and JetBlue.

                            Could you hire a C-130 and take your car?

                                Really? Orlando International has so many airlines its ridiculous. JetBlue is one of the more common ones, though.

                                  My understanding is JetBlue only flies on the Eastern seaboard. It doesn't go out West at all...

                                      That is surprising since they are so popular around here.
