Mesaba CRJ-900 N903XJ

    Ahh.. love flying in this aircraft.. very comfortable actually.. A big improvement over the standard CRJs. N903KJ arriving from the USA.. likely Detroit but possibly Minneapolis since it is an ER version.

      The new CRJ 900 or CRJ 1000 looks much more better!

      Martin C -- Canada - I haven't seen a CRJ-1000 yet but I've flown on this CRJ-900 and I must say it was a pretty comfortable plane inside.. a big improvement over the standard CRJ-200s.

      Really? I thought it depends on the airline's choice of what kind of seats they want to put in...

      Martin C -- Canada - It is but in Mesaba's case they chose comfortable ones plus the cabin itself was very bright and airy and the CRJ-900 has the -700 window placement which is 100% better than the old -200s being higher and physically bigger. The overall effect was a much more pleasing cabin.

      Wow nice! I haven't seen it flying around here yet.. should be in our skies up near Mirabel.

      It will be up there some I'm sure, but flies regularly out Wichita, where Bombardier's flight test center is located.

      Indeed, you are quite right, the CRJ-700, CRJ-900 are much more comfortable, passenger-friendly than the standard CRJ-100/200. I have been in all of them, with different airlines and configurations and I agree that -700 and -900 are better Thanks for the -1000 photo.

      cmnguyen_54 - Bigger and better placed windows.. and I think the floor line is actually lowered by an inch or so making the cross section a bit narrower but giving us more head room. The overall effect is a bighter cabin and a sense of it being more spacious.
