Legroom fit calculator
Enter your height and the seat's pitch to estimate how much knee room you'll actually have.
Pitch is the distance from one seat to the same point on the seat in front. Every seat map lists it per cabin.
Estimated knee room
9in
Plenty of room to stretch. You could cross your legs without hitting the seat in front.
Tip: exit rows and bulkheads usually add a few inches of pitch. Aisle seats let you stretch a leg out.
From your height to real knee room
Four quick steps turn two numbers into a verdict you can act on.
- 1
Enter your height
Set your height in inches or centimetres. We use it to estimate how far your knees sit from your hips.
- 2
Add the seat pitch
Every seat map lists pitch per cabin. Drop it in, or load a quick scenario to start.
- 3
We do the math
We subtract your thigh length and the seat cushion from the pitch to see what is left in front of your knees.

Read the verdict
Generous, comfortable, tight, or very tight, so you know whether to hold out for an extra-legroom row.
