However, American Airlines is reportedly cutting down on the front-to-back space between eco**my class seats on its upcoming Boeing 737 Max jetliners. Every inch counts when you're trying to stretch out, and these new planes will be cutting out two inches of legroom - from 31 inches to 29 on three rows, and from 31 to 30 on the rest.
The amount of legroom is called a plane's seat pitch - and can vary greatly depending on the airline and on the type of plane you're flying on. Low-fare airlines like Spirit and Frontier typically have lower seat pitches since they are more budget-friendly and basic, but airlines like JetBlue, Virgin, and Southwest boast larger seat pitches (30+ inches of legroom per seat in eco**my) that passengers love.

United Airlines is expected to follow American in decreasing seat pitch on some of its aircraft. "Fliers will still pay regular eco**my fares for the 18 seats with two inches less leg room," reported CNN (http://money.cnn.com/2017/05/02/news/companies/american-airlines-legroom/). "Two of those three rows of 29-inch pitch will be in the back of the plane and a third farther forward. These seats won't be part of its new basic eco**my fares (https://www.popsugar.com/smart-living/What-American-Airlines-Basic-Eco**my-Fare-43018608), which sell for less because fliers don't get access to overhead bins, a seat assignment or frequent flier miles."
So, what's a "**rmal" or "good" amount of legroom? Read on to see what the seat pitch is for each one of these major US airlines.
