Comfort is a matter of personal preference and experience, so it will not be possible to state a definitive amount, but standard seating in a 737 configuration on Southwest Airlines includes:
1. Seating Space: Pitch distances, the measure of distance between rows average around 31-32 inches for most domestic flights, which is rather standard. The width averages about 17 inches.
2. No reserved seating: Southwest is an open seating airline that allows passengers to choose their seats when the flight begins. This can be a benefit for people who need more space to stretch out.
3. Bare-bones Amenities: The seats do not have reclining capabilities in economy, however, otherwise clean and well-attended to.
4. Cabin Crew: Most people think that the cabin crew of Southwest is friendly, which makes the experience even more bearable.
For extremely long flights or as a matter of personal preference (for example, more space between seats for your legs), EarlyBird Check-In or an upgrade to a premium seat may also be an option. After all, everyone’s experiences are a little different, so you might find it worthwhile to try just one of these and see how they work for you.
