Brief

United is introducing a new long-haul economy upsell called Relax Row: a full row of three seats reconfigured with adjustable leg rests so one passenger can stretch out across them. The social post reacting to the announcement jokes about the obvious passenger behavior this layout may invite, while the airline pitches comfort perks and a broad rollout across its 787 and 777 fleet next year.

Welcome to United Relax Row, three adjacent United Economy seats with adjustable leg rests that can each be raised or lowered to create a cozy lie-flat space for stretching out...

You'll also get a mattress pad, blanket and two pillows. If you’re traveling with kids, a plushie too! United Relax Row will be available starting next year on more than 200 of our 787s and 777s, each with up to 12 of these brand-new rows.
