Ryanair and easyJet passengers advised on seat trick for extra legroom

Consumer experts from Which? have identified a method for passengers flying with budget carriers Ryanair and easyJet to secure extra legroom without paying for official upgrades. The advice suggests that choosing seats on the right-hand side of certain aircraft models can provide additional space.

For Ryanair passengers flying on Boeing 737 aircraft, experts recommend selecting seats D, E, or F in rows three through 15. For easyJet passengers on Airbus A321neo aircraft, seats D, E, or F between rows three and 13 may offer approximately one additional inch of legroom compared to seats on the left-hand side of the cabin.

To utilize this tip, travelers are advised to verify their specific aircraft type via airline websites, mobile apps, or flight-search tools like Google Flights before booking, as seating configurations and aircraft models can change.
