What is the best airline

Share this post

Size of seats and distance between myself and the row in front of me is very important... I go to seatguru.com before booking flight and put in the flight number and airline and it will tell me how big the seats are... if the seat is smaller than 18 inches, then I don't book since an 18 inch seat is the smallest I can squeeze into with the arms down!

I chose jet blue because the seats are large enough and they have lots of leg room compared so some other airlines. Also, they don't serve meals... and since I'm flying for surgery and can't eat a meal anyway, I don't care a bit about that missing perk!

I just flew Southwest from Indy to San Diego - very nice and very roomie (I'm 5'8" and no issues). Would definately fly them again.

That's a relief. I'm flying SW home and I'm 5'9 and extra wide.

When I went to Mexico, I flew United. When I was flying home, I upgraded to first class to be more comfortable. The best $75 I've ever spent...

Im US Airways... Anyone got the scoop on them??

Seat size will vary based on what aircraft your flight is on. Go to seatguru.com and put in your flight number and airline and they will tell you exactly what kind of plane you will be flying on, show you a seat map, tell you how wide the seats are and how far is between you and the seat in front of you.

I booked with Delta and bought 2 seats for me and 1 for my friend in Economy Plus. I could barely fit in seats 5 years ago when I was a good 70 lbs lighter. Oh well, at least this will be the last time!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
