I take back every nice comment I mentioned about LOT! I just spent 8 hours on their new Dreamliner, but it was more of a nightmare! They pack you on the plane like sardines and my legs were falling asleep.

Come on, if there is so little space on the Dreamliner, you should blame the Americans since they designed and manufactured the aircraft. Why do you blame LOT for that?

Fair enough. The greed of the airlines is forcing ppl to pay for an upgrade or suffer the consequences. I'm not tall or fat either. It used to be fun flying, not anymore. I don't feel like coming home either ;)

Wasz kraj jest piekny!

At least LOT dont charge xtra 53 bucks or so for checked in luggage.If you take an isle seat you dont feel that crunch for leg room.

@Ziem:No individual airlines plan there own seatings.

Don't go back to Krakow (aka PIS City) in November. Also known as Smog city. Far from "piekny."

A recipe for a stroke or heart attack on a nine hour non-stop flight.
This is the number two reason that I no longer have any desire to visit Europe.

When we unite in Central European Union all those problems will be past. EU is evil and incompetent and that greatly hold LOT back.

Because it is the airline who decides on the seat configuration and space between rows not the manufacturer

Then I agree with all of you. LOT is only about money and nothing else.

FLY OR NOT BUT NEVER BY LOT - as the famous slogan went in the commie times.

Yeah thats the one bad thing about the dreamliner. Their old planes had a tad more room. Id usually book the seat right in front of the projector like where the wall is. Also the first class/business was more reasonably priced than it is now. Now its a straight rip off.

Trade off is watching a big map of a plane moving slowly over the atlantic interrupted by an old schwarznegger film and have marginally more leg room or less leg room and much better entertainment

And no **** lot is all about money. Thats the whole point of a publicly traded company. If you were a shareholder and they werent about money youd be pissed.

Actually in communist days LOT was the best carrier to Heathrow. 10 percent discount for a Polish connection from the Polish Travel Agent in London, and better food than British Airways.

AND as many Wyborowa miniatures as I could drink ( 7 was my best effort I recall)
