If you're a window seat flyer special note when flying AirTran airlines. The newer Boeing 717 planes they use have a peculiar seat support system that limits the window seat passenger's leg room when combined with the curve of the fuselage of the plane. There are two seat supports for the seats in front of you. Not a big deal - except on long flights for 6 footers plus. I suppose this would be the same on all airlines that use the same age Boeing 717 aircraft, but AirTran is the only one I've flown with the space limitation. I'm switching to aisle seats on AirTran.
