Have to agree re these comments. For short haul I would say much better to pay the small extra charge for the exit seat legroom. Just flew back from Thessaloniki for first time in a while using BA (have used Easyjet in recent years) but as BA flight this time round came up same price opted for that. We had an enormous amount of leg room in Row 12 - more in fact than the Club Euope seats we walked past enroute.
