In fact, I often angle for this coveted row, as it's a great way to save money, by not upgrading to business class, while still saving my legs. The trade-offs to sitting in the exit row are more than welcomed! As someone who’s 6′6″, the exit row is definitely a upgrade for me on flights over two hours.

I prefer exit rows, but often times I have to weigh the pro with the cons. Pro is extra legroom. Cons are no recline on first row of double exit row, armrests do not raise, seat cushions are often thinner/harder, the row is often colder, sometimes missing (or mini) wall-side armrests, and sometimes do not have window shades.
