Frontier Airlines Makes More Room For The Middle Seat

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) – One airline is making the dreaded middle seat a little roomier.

Frontier Airlines said it will make the center seat an inch wider while the window and aisle seats remain the same at 18 inches.

That inch comes with a tradeoff.

All of Frontier's seats are getting thinner and are "pre-reclined."

That means the distance from the seat in front of you will shrink to 28 inches and seats won't tip back at all.
