Article So you think seats on airplanes are small now? (1 Viewer)

These guys want you to sit on a tiny saddle. More like a padded thong if you ask me. Would you ride on one of these?

I'd much rather lie down, I wondered why they can't make seats that recline backwards. They you could stack them. Would be a way to get more buts and simultaneously increase comfort.

those guys can suck it

As long as they don’t recline; maybe yes. I’m 6’5” so that’s how the seats are for me anyway. Join the club suckas.

I am kinda with everyone on this. For the amount of time I could sit on that I would rather drive.

I ride my bike all the time with a saddle smaller but it took good money and lots miles and saddle changes to get to where I could do it. Riding a bike you at least have other things to focus on.

I am certain that is designed for people with a non american build.

Seems like some design company is showing off these stupid seats every year at some airshow or convention or whatever. I guess they're hoping some airline exec will eventually be sadistic enough to order them.

It's not the airline's fault, blame goes to the consumer. People have the decision between fare prices and leg room and the majority continue to choose the cheaper priced ticket.

When I was young, first class and business class was stupid.

As I get older, those higher fares make a lot more sense, particularly on longer flights.

I'm not gonna fly in those seats, no thank you. I'll spend more on better seats or drive. I really would like a super high speed rail option though.

That picture comes up about every year or so.

Will new standing-up airplane seat design take off? | CNN

Italian seat manufacturer Aviointeriors has come up with a design concept in which airplane seats are so far upright that passengers are pretty much standing up. Will this design take off?

www.cnn.com

This has been going on for decades. No airline will touch it yet. Nowhere to store your stuff under the seat. Not enough bin space for all those rows. Evacuation time issues...
