You'll find the same is true of the ERJ as well.

[quote] Same with the ERJ. Difference is the bin in the CRJ is actually bigger. Also, the -900 (and I THINK the -700) have bins up front under the pax compartment to store carry-ons. When I loaded -900s in MEM the planes were weight restricted a lot (MEM-PHX route), so that's why a lot of bags had to be re-routed.

Seat pitch isn't spectacular (I'm a mere 6'0'') and the windows are too low.
Both the CRJ and ERJ have 31" seat pitch.

I agree that RJs aren't the most comfortable planes cabin wise, but both the ERJ and CRJ are more or less equal in there confinedness. Kinda hard to call the CRJ worst regional jet ever when you look at it that way. Ya sure you just weren't sitting next to a pax that needed two seats?
