Southwest soft launches extra-legroom seats on all Hawaii flights, nearly half of its planes

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.
