Sunwing Airlines review by Dorothy 2015-01-05

We flew Sunwing to and from Cancun. There was no legroom on these flights for anyone above 5'10" - it was a very uncomfortable experience. I am 5'11" and my traveling companions were all over 6 feet tall. It was a terrible and uncomfortable 6 hour flight each way. We could not upgrade to the Elite Plus seats (emergency Row seats which would have been $40 each). It was uncomfortable to the point of being unsafe and dangerous! Sunwing = very bad flying experience. Flight back from Cancun was delayed 2 hours, got back to Vancouver at 2:30 am, not a great way to end a vacation. Sunwing have a tight seatpitch of 29 inch which is not uncommon for a low cost carrier. The more people they can fit in , the lower the fares will be is the theory.
