US AIRWAYS ECONOMY CLASS SEAT REVIEW  - 3rd March 2009 by Mike McKee (USA)

Add one more to the list of those who find USAirways A330 coach class seats incredibly uncomfortable. As others have also stated, this was puzzling because our Denver to Philadelphia leg on an A320 was fine. I was shocked that our international leg to London offered worse comfort than the domestic leg. Makes no sense. I should point out that I am the type who almost never complains about anything, and can usually cope with discomfort or inconvenience. I am also relatively tall at 6'/0", but not unusually so, yet all the way to London I had to sit at an angle. It was impossible for me to fit with my knees pointed straight ahead. It wasn't close, either. I had to sit at about a 30 degree angle to one side, then switch to the other side, ad nauseum. By the time we arrived, I was in serious pain and discomfort. I have never experienced seats this close together on any flight anywhere!

By far the most uncomfortable seats I have ever experienced. We went 1 leg on an Airbus 320 - that was great. Last leg on the 757 - that was horrendous. I'm only 6' tall, but my knees hit the seat in front of me the entire trip. There was so little room between that seat and mine, that I wasn't able to use the lap tray for my computer. The distance between adjacent seats was minimal, so buckling seat belts was an arduous task. This plane is probably fine for 1 hour flights, but on 7-8 hour flights it's horrible. This plane is billed as 188 passenger; it needs to be about 150 to give people an opportunity to relax on their flight.

Beware seat 21D which is the "toilet seat" located within a few feet of the door to the mid- cabin toilet. Since most people use this toilet, it is in use throughout a three or four hour flight. Usually, the door is left open. The foul smells would make any seasoned air traveller sick within minutes.

PHL to FRA - worst seat pitch ever! Even the domestic flights offer more room. On return flight was offered the choice: stay in FRA or pay $500 for upgrade.

PHL to LHR red eye flight. 7.5 hours of pure torture. Airline crammed more rows into airplane. Virtually NO legroom in seat A, due to electrical box under the seat in front. Limited legroom in seat B due to another electrical box. Those boxes under ALL seats. Almost no recline. Corporate greed created one of the modern torture devices on long flights. This was the first time I flew domestic airline to Europe. Never again.

I flew from Frankfurt to Charlotte and back to Frankfurt. The seats were 13F and 20F. The legroom was the worst I ever had. The seat pitch was was not a 33 inch pitch.
