Plan de cabine United Airlines Embraer EMB 170 (E70)

3 hour flight in United's non- First Class 'premium' seating, and while I have read some negative reviews of this aircraft, my experience was good.

Plenty of legroom in this row, engine noise was minimal and overhead bins on this side were ample as was underseat room.

I don't think I would want to be on this kind of plane longer than 2.5-3 hours, as the lack of seat bottom padding and anything resembling a headrest would take it's toll.

United's WiFi and small-device entertainment services performed flawlessly.

Thanks to the oil boom in Alberta, the UA/Skywest service from Edmonton to Chicago has been upgraded to an Embraer configured with a small business class. Very comfortable seat for solo travelers. No entertainment on board, so an iPod and a good book are essential! I actually connected on to Miami that same day and got the exact same aircraft again, coincidentally!

Very poor overhead storage space, my carry on barely fit. For WiFi, you had to purchase. This is why I prefer Southwest over any domestic airline. Better storage & free WiFi.

Worst, most painful seats ever. Slim line results in no seat bottom or seat back padding. Even short flights are a miserable experience. Never again!
