UA was running a "spin the wheel" promo at LAX and ORD earlier this month, with thrilling stuff like "Premier Line" on offer.

I'd happily pay $25 - $100 (depending on length of segment) to get one. Who all sells emergency row seats? Can someone offer me up a list of airlines? I'm 6'6" and am horribly uncomfortable in standard pitch coach seats. Does UA sell exit row seats? I’d happily pay $25 – $100 (depending on length of segment) to get one.

Maybe the peace of mind of not having to worry about that was worth the $25 to her? It amuses me how emotional some people are about gate checking their carry ons. some people are exteremely afraid of having to gate check their carry ons.
