CONTINENTAL AIRLINES B757-200 ECONOMY CLASS SEAT REVIEW - 20 May 2011 by Alex (USA)

AIRCRAFT : B757-200	PAX SIZE : Large	LAYOUT : 3x3	POSITION : Window
PAX RATING : 7/10	RECOMMENDED : Yes

For economy seating, B757-200 fleet is not bad. I'm 6'2" and found the space decent. The seat pitch is measured at 31", but feels more. I still won't rate it as "good", however. JetBlue has set the bar for good to excellent economy seating.

Sat in 44B at the rear of the plane. This and 44A are one of the only twosomes on the aircraft - the others being 44KL. I'm 6'2" and found the 31" pitch provided adequate legroom.

Flying transatlantic with Continental is a real nightmare. Narrow seat with little cushion, at meal time passengers keeps their seating position down. The worse part is that underneath the seat there is the entertainment box, there is very little room and that prevent you from moving and stretching your legs.

Like all other comments, Continental should not be allowed to use this aircraft for transatlantic flights - they are only just acceptable for a 2hr flight to Spain!

CONTINENTAL AIRLINES ECONOMY CLASS SEAT REVIEW - 31 December 2009 by J Barker (USA)

I am 6'1" and the 767-400 in economy is acceptable. the 32" pitch really makes a difference against the 31" pitch on the 777 - that 1" makes a world of difference if you are tall, and you will suffer. To avoid the Continental 777's, Asiana Airlines economy offers 34" pitch and I find the extra connection is worth the comfort!

Seat has a decent width, legroom and recline. The seat-back was also well padded. The most comfortable Y class seat I have traveled. Even had a few hours' sleep towards the end of my 10-hour flight, IAH-GIG.

Quite the most uncomfortable aircraft seats I have come across. Low cost, short haul carriers give you better legroom.

Avoid flying Continental to Europe on B757-200 airplanes, these planes are not designed for long trans-atlantic flights, much less so when it appears that extra rows of seats have been added for extra revenue, causing extreme passenger discomfort.


Review: 22 March 2008	Aircraft: Boeing 737-300	Name: Dave Silverstone (USA)
Position: Window	Layout: 3x3	PAX size: Medium
Recommended : No	Comfort Score : 4/10
Legroom space	unlike most of the newer 737's in Continental's fleet, the 747-300 has flimsy pads for headrests, rather than the adjustable ones which make quite a difference on anything beyond a short- haul flight. Recline is a joke, but at least makes getting out of your seat easier in flight. Average for domestic economy - or at least would have been years ago.
