Cheng Long 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2011 Really hope with all this talk about being premium, they will revamp the seats.. They are just too tight and horrible.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Josh T 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2011 If they just take 1 row out, it will make all the difference. The pitch will increase to 32", which is comfortable for the majority of passengers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BC Tam 2 Report post Posted October 20, 2011 I'm wondering how complicated it is to "remove' or 'add' rows of seats ? Because not just where one parks one's posterior, but you also have those lights and emergency masks in overhead panel. Also those markers that indicate your seat number But I guess airlines do it often anyway, cannot be impossible Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Besides 1 row of seat, they will also need to remove the closets at the back of the aircraft to make 32" of seat pitch in Y possible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cheng Long 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2011 Unknown in Malaysia but in London/UK? I'm not in the UK so I can't tell.. but my UK friends don't seem to be big fans of QPR also.. Anyway, if MH has lots of money, that will be a different story, but they don't. Their products and services are just getting more and more disappointing by the day.. Sure got small improvements here and there but others are leaping forward.. They should spend wisely with whatever they have..sports publicity is good but get the products and services right first.. Their new 737-800 has the worst leg room I ever experienced in FSC..worse than Garuda's which should be an embarassment to all Malaysians.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
