To let you know Ryanair has larger seats than Tui

Just because I was shocked! I’m pregnant so spent a bit of time working out which seats would be roomier, and I automatically assumed it would be Tui.

Very surprised to find out that Ryanair gives you 2 extra inches of legroom compared to Tui!

Worth being aware of if you need that (tiny) extra bit of space :)

I can believe Tui are smaller on short haul but I am a little suspicious of your figures. I believe (and happy to be corrected) that a lot of the Ryanair fleet is 737-800s like the one below - and there are not many 30 inch seats on that aircraft if the link is right! Unless you round them all up.

I would also look at width and whether they recline, especially if pregnant. Where you're going obv makes a difference too. When we flew to the Canaries with Tui we got a long haul seat configuration, which is more generous. I don't know if that is standard for a 4 hour flight or if we got lucky. Good luck with your holiday planning, have fun.
