\u200cAeroplanes aren\u2019t known for comfortable seating. But a few areas on the plane will give travellers a little extra legroom.<\/p>\n

Yasmin Pekel, travel expert at Blue Cruise, has shared her best tips for travellers who want a bit more room to stretch on their flight.<\/p>\n

Yasmin said: \u201cIf you\u2019re tall or simply want some extra legroom, consider opting for an exit row or bulkhead seat.<\/p>\n

\u201cExit row seats are typically situated near emergency exits, and passengers sitting in these seats must be non-disabled adults in full fitness as they may be required to physically assist in an emergency evacuation.\u201d<\/p>\n

Exit row seats can\u2019t be occupied by a child as passengers may be required to open the door if there\u2019s an incident.<\/p>\n

While the seats will give passengers a little extra legroom, travellers will need to store all their luggage in the overhead lockers.<\/p>\n

Yasmin said: \u201cBulkhead seats, meanwhile, also offer additional legroom. These seats are located behind a physical divider, so there\u2019s no chance of anybody reclining their seat into your space.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bulkhead seats are usually at the front of a seating area and might be right behind the toilet or service area.<\/p>\n

Due to their proximity to the toilet, passengers may find the seats are a little noisier than other areas of the plane.<\/p>\n

Yasmin added: \u201cBe wary if you plan to take a lot of belongings on board, however, as bulkhead seats often have limited under-seat storage.\u201d<\/p>\n

On a long haul flight with screens, bulkhead seats will usually have a pull out screen instead of one in front. Passengers should be aware they may be moved from the bulkhead seat if a baby is on the flight.<\/p>\n
