Next step - put bicycle seats, reducent material for backs. Then add bicycle pedals for engines, to reduce fuel usage. None said anything about actually reducing ticket price by that, high prices stays forever.

It sounds quiet ridiculous, but I also had some flights that were so short (~50 min) that it almost took more time to seat everybody. Anyway, I would love to read those safety reports. Not only is sitting better on impact, but also cramping more people in the same machine, means more people (which trend to not comprehend the idea of leaving their luggage behind) share the exit routes.

Standing still in place for a few hours is waaay more uncomfortable than pacing and walking around. Shifting the weight on our feet really helps

I can't imagine how awful these would be, especially with how cramped they'd be packed in (otherwise they're no smaller than chairs). God, you couldn't even bend down to scratch your knee.

I remember seeing pictures like this a looking time ago so I'm pretty sure they're fake bait. At best it's an idea somebody prototyped but won't use.

Cowards just need to go all in and hang us under the plane like an overhead roller coaster.

I mean, I'm broke as shit. So if it halved the cost of the tickets I'd do it, but I'm 99% sure I'd be paying close to the same.

You must be a wizard. Of course the savings aren't transferred to you. When they fuck up. They put it on the consumer. Time is unwinding. The poor pay more.

I don’t get it. Why not just have bunk beds and everyone gets to lay down like those sleeper busses in Asia. They get way more people on those busses than with just seats

If people actually pay for this it’s on them

You need to fly somewhere? Okay, fuck you.

Edit: wasn't there just a story about how they are going to offer first class seats with five windows? I guess it is just gods and slobs now.

That's right, girls. Start packing on those pounds because the only airline seat that poops, then lies about it doesn't have farts in the headrest anymore.

Can I just sit on the floor like on a train in Poland?

I'd pay extra to not have to deal with the TSA as well.

What about people like myself who have POTS and can't be in a standing position for too long? My heart can legit stop causing me to pass out if I'm standing for too long.

I'm over 40 and I usually stand up about half of my working day. But I wouldn't want to stand in an airplane because it's cramped.

First it'll be the seats. Next they will remove the floor. Now it's one of those dangling roller coaster rides without rails! 😃
