Looking at going on safari next year and flying out with BA. Just wondering if anyone knows if their economy seats for world traveller are bigger then standard economy seats for european flights?

Think world traveller (economy) is 31", and i can upgrade to world traveller plus (premium) which is 37". But wanted to know if the economy seats are usually bigger than the economy you get for short distance flying? Im 6ft 1 so like abit of legroom and have only flown short distances so not sure if long haul flights generally have slightly bigger legroom as standard.

will it not say on their website?

I've only flown short haul on BA and never long haul so cant give you an answer pal. Maybe just request an exit seat and become part of the team?

I would imagine so.

I would also imagine the BA website and customer services will give you a correct answer.

they dont specify the seat sizes on BA, there is a website: seatguru.com and they show various aircraft used by different companies. just dont know the difference between short and long haul so hoping someones done both!??

I flew back from the states with BA and there was no leg room at all!
I had some blokes legs in my back the whole way back and even my little sister had no leg room and she was only like 4ft tall!!!
and the air stewardesses where right bitches!
Never flying BA again
