COACH passengers used to rubbing up against neighbours on crowded US flights are about to get something unusual on a few United Airlines flights: elbow room.
As United shuffles its fleet and brings in a mix of new and used jets, it's putting 10 Boeing Co 777-200s on US routes instead of just flying them abroad. A benefit for road warriors is that with two aisles instead of one, the wide-body 777 boasts twice as many of the coveted spots adjacent to those pathways as the narrow-bodies that predominate on US routes.
