[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would go premium economy.[/quote]

I never really understood the benefit of economy plus (unless you are 6’2”+). Honest question. [/quote]

I fortunately I have a teenager and a husband who is 6’4 and we have to upgrade them. My self and my younger 2 sit in regular. I notice that really fat people probably need to be in economy plus ad well. Im 5’10 and regular economy doesn’t bother me. Girder I’m thin and it’s easy for me to move around.  [/quote]

+1.  My 18-year-ols son is 6'5" tall, and he really enjoys having 2-3 extra inches of legroom in Premium Economy.  If I put him in Economy, it would only be for a short flight and he would dread it.[/quote]

Yup. I just flew a short hop to Boston for a school visit with my 6’4 son and there were no upgrades available. That flight was the limit for him with that economy legroom.

With that said I don’t think I could stomach actually paying for upgrades, especially what the OP describes. We have a lot of points and never pay for upgrades just use points. My DH is a road warrior and we use our united Chase card for absolutely everything. Even just purchased a car and out the max the dealership would allow on that card. Never would I pay first class or business class rates.[/quote]
