[…] ultra-low cost carrier Frontier Airlines is adding European-style business class seating where extra legroom seats at the front of the plane will also allow a passenger to buy the seat […]

I bought middle seats several times during the Covid-19 pandemic. JetBlue was easy but Singapore Airlines was a pain. I haven’t flown Frontier airlines but this sounds like a good deal. The only downside is that it may lead to 12 inch wide seats with four on each side of a single aisle airplane.

I took advantage of a similar offer with WOW Air (RIP) KEF-BOS. I’d do it again. This would also make me consider F9 for future travel.

I find the “European” style narrow body business seat to be quite good. I’ve only experienced on Croatian Airlines, BA and LH but I like the additional shoulder room. (I know I’m weird as I don’t like strangers touching me. Consequently I avoid SWA even though I fly free on WN. Lots of touching going on there.). Should I find myself on Frontier, and I can’t imagine why, I’ll pay the extra just as I would pay for the Big Front Seat on Spirit (they still offer that?)

Retired and living in Malta I sit in those biz class seats. All four to nine rows. I average 20 to 35 flights per year. Never heard anyone complain, except an American. European biz meals better than American first. AND no surly FA’s. She’d a few pounds.

I’d try it out just out of curiosity.

With no lounges? about food? food?

They’ll struggle to sell this seat on a ULCC

Passengers on local LH flights in Europe complain about this type of seating all the time!

I’ve had good experiences flying Frontier for short haul and like the pay for what you actually need pricing structure. I’ll definitely be booking these “Euro business” seats

US Airways tried this with Metro Jet back in the 90’s. It just doesn’t translate to U.S. flights. No one paid for it or wanted to upgrade.
