Nearly half of Southwest planes now have extra legroom
It's not just Southwest's Hawaii flights that have its new extra-legroom seats, either. As of Sept. 8, the carrier had retrofitted 380 of its planes with the new seating setup — about 47% of its fleet.
As part of the cabin revamp, crews also installed in-seat power outlets and larger overhead bins on all of Southwest's MAX 8 planes that fly its longer routes.
