Southwest Airlines
I'm going on a flight tomorrow and I'm curious as to how big Southwest's seats are. I'm not in first class, I imagine we have coach seats but I don't travel often and I find most airplane seats to be a bit uncomfortable and not having enough room. Can someone tell me how Southwest's seats are? Thanks!

My cousin flew Southwest coach and said it was pretty much the same as any other airline except the attendants were more friendly.
Honestly, I can only stand coach for up to three hours and then I'm ready to shoot myself in the face.
If you're traveling for up to four hours, you can make yourself busy sitting upright but coach seats are horrible to sleep on. If I'm forced to fly coach for more than four hours, I'll usually sit in my seat for a bit and then about an hours into the flight, I'll look for two or three unoccupied seats that I can stretch out on.
You should also try to score seats near the front of your section. Those ones are better spaced out than at the back of the plane which are crammed when they try to fit more seats in.
I've never personally asked for one but I've had a few of my friends ask for upgrades and get bumped up to first class. Before getting your boarding pass, arrive early, smile politely, dress nicely and ask if there is any chance of an upgrade. But I'd honestly rather pay for the seat than have to dress up in a suit or something for ten hours.

Southwest's planes only have one type of seat. I only fly Southwest.
I'm only 5', and I sit criss-cross-applesauce, so I find there to be enough room. If you a 6'7 bodybuilder, then you might be a little cramped.

When I fly, I fly Southwest. The seats are fairly comfortable, and there is an appropriate amount of room between you and your neighbors. Leg room is acceptable, but seatbelts are rather limited on length for those larger passengers. They're generous with pillows and blankets, but they won't offer them to you or even hand those out unless you ask for them. Also, before the flight leaves the ground, they go over the safety proceedures. They have quite a sense of humor about what is to be done in those emergency situations, and the passengers seem to dig the laughs, so definitely listen closely for that. In all of Southwest's 47 years, they have yet to have a fatality. I'd venture to say you are in good hands. :) If you would like to learn more about Southwest Airlines, try visiting [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)

My brother's flown Southwest in the past week-- according to him they are pretty comfortable, especially if you get one of the first rows behind the first class.
