In 30 seconds: If you're anything like me (6 foot 5), flying is [basically punishment.
Sardines is always the first word that comes to mind.
Economy is okay for short flights, but business is where you'd want to be for longer, international flights. We've got plenty of articles on how to get a business class ticket for less than the price of a used car.
Anyway, here's the chrome addon: Legroom. This tool shows you which flights have the most legroom and the best prices (this is all economy, obviously). No BS. No clutter. Just a clean little plugin that tells you what actually matters when you're 3 hours into a 12-hour flight and your back starts to hurt in that extra great way.
Here's what it does:
- Scans flights for optimal legroom (actual usable space)
- Shows you which seats to avoid unless you enjoy losing circulation
- Pairs comfort with price
- Works directly inside Google Flights, right in your browser
This addon is for people who:
- Hate being squished
- Fly frequently and value comfort over free pretzels
- Have knees
Another great tool is Seatguru. Shows you the most comfortable seat on every type of airplane.
