Agree with shahi...3 hours is nothing, if not half a book or a short nap.

5+ hours is where the seat starts to matter more.

3 hours in the middle for extra points, hell yes I'll do it!

No way . . .

I'm a big guy, at 6'3" I join the others who would PAY to get out of middle or window seat. On many AC configs, window seat is worse with curve forcing shoulders into hapless seatmate in the middle.

id do it.... i just had an 8 hour flight and i was in the middle between two strangers and it didnt bother me... so i think i could handle a three hour flight with an incentive

i would totally do it! 3 hours is really nothing. I have a habit of passing out quickly on planes so it'd be over in the blink of an eye. I might even do it for a cross country flight (since i've had to do it several times for no miles) but i probably wouldn't do it on a transatlantic flight.

At 6'6", I wouldn't give up an aisle for 2500 miles. No way.

Definitely not in questionable weather times, when there's the possibility one might be "stuck" in that middle seat a LOT longer than planned.

It isn't that long of a flight 'tho, if I were a LOT shorter, I MIGHT consider it.

if the plane had 2 3 2, a window is nothing on a 3 hr flight...if its 3 2 3 or 3 3, on a 3+ hour flight I'll still give up the aisle seat for 2500 hundred miles...

giving up an aisle seat for a window in a 3 seat row for a flight longer than 4 hours will not happen for me that is my threshold...
