give everyone a more comfortable space and divide the lost revenue between the remaining seats - on long haul I would fly with this airline!!!
That was such a good idea that AA did it. There was a biiiiig advertising campaign about the extra 2 or 3 three inches leg room in Y.
As I understand it, about two years later they quietly started to reverse the process because they did NOT get zillions more folks buying their seats. They found that people ONLY want the lowest seat price. Then they moan about the seat pitch and swear never to fly with that carrier again. Next holiday/trip they look for whichever carrier has the cheapest seats ...
