I am travelling tomorrow night and booked when return economy airfares to Korea were under $1000. I have just checked and my strategy of booking a middle row aisle seat where someone had booked the other aisle to get an empty seat in the middle didn't work, someone took the middle seat.
My wife (163 cm) and 12-year-old daughter (165 cm) have already left and complained that a350 economy was extremely uncomfortable as they are both too tall for the seat and found it too narrow. I am 188cm and weigh a lot more than my wife and daughter combined so am highly concerned. I can upgrade to premium economy for cash but am concerned that with the 2-4-2 layout there's a good chance I will get one of the 2 middle seats. If anyone has flown both would you rather an aisle seat in economy or a middle seat in premium for more money? I could just upgrade to business although Mrs Kor would probably apply a chocking action to me when she found out
