The exit row seats without a seat in front are great for leg room but don’t have a fold out entertainment console so you’re forced to use the screen several feet in front of you (there is, at least, a remote). Best to bring a tablet loaded with entertainment or a book.

Alternatively, you can pack your own food from home in reusable containers to avoid using single-use plastic and minimize the amount of waste that goes into the environment. Better still, taking your own meal on your flight usually means eating a healthier meal. You can also bring a reusable water bottle from home to reduce plastic waste from water bottles while traveling.
