Plan de cabine American Airlines CRJ 200

These are nice little jets. I paid extra to move up to the exit row (8A) for my trip to Chicago, because my originally assigned seat was in the last row right by the bathroom door. The exit row gives you a bit more leg room (not a lot). The bigger plus is that it is quieter than farther back in the plane. I like to look out the windows when I fly. Interestingly, although you are sitting over the wing in the exit row, your view is not obstructed by the wing. You do have to scrunch down to look out the window. You can see more easily if you are in the aisle seat and have a compatible seat mate who will keep the shade up. Coming back from Chicago I was in seat 12 B. It was fine - noisier than optimal, but ok. Seats 12 A & B will recline. 12 C & D will not recline. On the whole, it was a positive experience.

Specific seat issues: lavatory door is to your right, and you will smell it every time the door is open. Also, you are last off which is important for the bin issue below.

Sear width seems smaller than other commuter jets.
General cabin issue: Overhead bins will not fit a bag of any size. Had a HalfDay carryon that would not fit. Options were to cram under seat or valet check. Crammed under seat. Not a great fit but flight attendant did not complain. It beat a valet check and related wait behind everyone else on the plane. If you have wheels on your carryon, it will be a valet check.

Cabin height can be challenging. I am 6 foot and needed to duck a few times walking down the aisle.

Nothing wrong with these seats but because of the warning, I switched to row 6 for the return trip. Couldn't tell the difference! But don't plan on looking out the window on this plane unless you're about 5 ft tall.
