Yeah I was wondering how it would be for a larger person, like me, in the exit rows. But I fit fine in a KLM Embraer 175 seat (which is 17" width with a 29" pitch), so I probably be fine. Just wondering about the seat belts as extenders are not allowed at exit rows.

I should imagine all seat belts have the same dimensions/regardless of seating position, so if you don't normally need an extension when flying , an exit seat should be fine. It's the width that could be an issue depending on body shape. The exit rows are a snug fit as we both found out, accidently squashing the light and attendant buttons as we fidgeted about.lol

I've just booked 5 seats in the bubble this morning, never been up there before and wanted to give it a go.

Like the idea of there only being a few people up there and the kids are overjoyed as to them its like we are really rich and sitting in the posh bit
