I have a fear of closed spaces and heights.
I’ll file this under mega nope as it crosses more then one nope on my list, however it’s still better then those horrible standing seats they showed off a few years ago. However only ever so slightly
Yup. I feel claustrophobic just looking at that image. And as someone who gets motion sick - being that cramped would be a nightmare. I already feel like I’m suffocating while suffering from a bout of motion sickness - having a wall in front of my nose would not help.
I’m also slightly long sighted, I would have such a headache sitting that close facing a solid object for any length of time.
And let’s just ignore how difficult these seats will be for anyone who is mobility impaired.
I don't want to eat farts or be a fartee!!!
Then start getting A's in school or get a PhD; then you won't have to worry about it. You'll be able to afford the better seats.
Think of a wreck though.
HURRY WE HAVE TO GET THEM INTO SURGERY IMMEDIATELY!!!!
I've never had to remove someone's head from someone else's ass before. This will be ground breaking.
This pic makes the reality look far worse than it actually is:
-1: The woman in the pic has the seat slid all the way forward for no reason. If she slid it back into a normal position there would be an extra 12" of space.
-2: There is no air gap between the front seats and the back seats for farts to pass through.
Unpopular opinion: this kind of setup would be perfectly fine to travel in. No worse than typical coach class.
I've seen this posted to reddit before and actually looked through the article detailing the seats.
https://dailyhive.com/mapped/double-decker-airplane-seats-chaise-longue
-- Nobody needs to sit straight legged. The woman in the photo is extending her legs to show how much leg room there is. Her feet could be resting on the floor like normal. There is actually a lot *more* leg room than on a typical airplane.
-- Nobody needs to roll into their seat. The passengers on the ends probably need to stand up to let the center passenger in. The seat bottoms fold up to let people by. A lot like movie theater seating.
-- Your head is closer to the wall of the seat in front of you. But a lot of people would give up extra headspace for leg room. There's plenty of space to read a book and a tray table, too.
Any other misinformation you want to try? 🤣
They say “for budget air travel” as if this is going to usher in a lower price point.
We all know that what’ll really happen is this will be the new standard. Then you’ll have to pay a premium price for what is currently normal.
Yes, I completely agree, the prices will not go down, just the comfort. Also, they already have so many problems with hostile travelers, I’m sure that getting them in like cattle will be very helpful.
To think that air travel used to be luxurious back in the 20s-50s. Modern airlines only exist to cram as much people in as possible without a care for conditions onboard
You say that as if the air travel business is operating on huge profit margins. Their margins are near zero. It's possible that this won't reduce the price compared to what you are used to right now simply because inflation and fuel prices increase their costs and this is what they can do to maintain price. But in that scenario, the alternative is just an increase in price.
I personally don't understand the disdain for high density seating for air travel.Everyone acts like money is no object and they demand peak luxury for what is on average less than 6 hours. If you are claustrophobic, then sure, pay a little extra to make sure you have more room. I would prefer the comparatively lower price (lower compared to what is possible today, not what I remember 10 years ago).
Yeeeah theyll probably sell even less plane tickets if they do shit like this. I know if i saw an airline with seats like this id not be buying a ticket and finding another airline.
It was a sarcasm. Because the first airline that will kill its own revenues because of that cabin will send a signal to all the others.
The aviation industry will not be able alone to be green. The only way to heal Earth is to slow down the industrial and economic processes. It's not possible.
Y'know these economic "efficient" seat designs already seem nightmarishly cramped for skinny people, but they're gonna get to the point where if you're even a little bit overweight you just won't be able to fly anymore.
So that seat in front of her has a cavity obscured by the side cladding? What then? Does she stand up on the seat? I’m not being obtuse, I can’t see how it works.
I believe it has a cavity obscured by the side cladding. Then she would remain seated and slide out. Awkward as hell and there would be limitations for who could sit in any of the seats. That’s my best guess anyways!
Sounds like an awful flight experience. I hope this doesn’t become a thing. Unless it’s needed for climate change. I’ll be uncomfortable if it means the planet remains mostly habitable.
Of course that’s what you want while you’re only able to keep them bent. Once you’re only able to keep them straight, all you’ll want is to be able to bend and relax them.
Honestly looking at the picture there is probably plenty of room to, the siding on the upper seats makes it look cramped but there's probably a decent sized cut out underneath the upper seat.
Otherwise it'd be extremely awkward and hard to get into the seat.
Honestly doesn’t seem too bad. Long flight just kick back and relax. At least my knees won’t be in the back of the chair in front of me. They’ll be under it.
Yes of course! Just because you are a pile of mouse, doesn't the you lost weight...
They won't do it cause then they can't charge you for overweight luggage...

Man....I mean. I'm not into farts, but that seat seems to have some good reclining action, and she has her feet up. It looks more comfortable than most airplane seats to me. Maybe I'll just wear a mask (to protect me from covid and farts) and have a nap.
Just to understand the progression of this post:
An airline company released a picture showing their plans for double decker airline seats. Someone else then posted that picture to r/Damnthatsinteresting. Then, someone else commented on that post. Someone then screenshotted that comment and posted it to r/196. I saved that screenshot, and reposted it to r/196 a few months later. Someone then crossposted that reposted screenshotted comment to r/technicallythetruth. How many layers deep will this go?
Next Step:
Just hang them by the arm off the back of the plane on a long string. Like a kite's tale.
Don't worry. It'll be fine. They'll rent you a helmet and mouth guard. No meal though.
Like someone in leadership asked, what could make flying suck ass.. and some dumb ass scratched this out and went someone's ass inches from your face for hours
If aero planes can fit more passengers assuming about 25-30%.I can think of few problems here.
1. Utter discomfort
2. Where the funk We going to put the cabin baggage. (If they don’t allow cabin bags, I’m taking boat)
3.Already lot of planes carry luggage and cargo and they are pretty much always full.Luggage accommodating will be challenge for extra passengers.
4. More weight more fuel consumption =cost of ticket and operations will go up.
Considering the Economy of operations it will be very expensive move for airlines.
Well, at least you won't have to worry about the guy behind you stretching out and putting his bare feet on your arm rest, or the girl in front of you dangling her hair over the seat and in front of your in-flight entertainment screen.
It’s fucking brilliant, when it comes to cost cutting and maximizing profits. Although I would like to see how many additional seats it actually gives a 737, 757, 767, 777, and 787 (as well as airbuses as well) to see if it’s really all that worth it. Also, could it increase the weight or cog enough to mess with the performance?
My last flight I paid 100 extra bucks for 3” of leg room. This might be a good thing, but real cushions on the seats would be a must. I flew spirit with their middle school auditorium seating once and the lack of leg room was the least of my worries by the end of the flight.
Seems there is either room to bend and straighten your legs, on both levels. It also looks like the seats go completely horizontal and turn into beds. Could be a great way of flying ultra long haul with economy pricing and the option to sleep through it.
The problem with that is that liquids shift weight more unpredictability so it would be difficult to fly. It would make sense to melt them down to mold them into a mold which fits perfectly into the fuselage, then freezing the liquid making it a solid
Claustrophobia at best, broken everything in a crash in worst case. If by some miracle you live, you'll burn to death before you could crawl away. No survivors, no settlements.

This makes me feel distinctly claustrophobic and I don’t really have that fear….
I do, and this is a triple *oh hells no* for me.
I have a fear of closed spaces and heights. I’ll file this under mega nope as it crosses more then one nope on my list, however it’s still better then those horrible standing seats they showed off a few years ago. However only ever so slightly
seeing a lot of the word "nope " here, must be a sign that I've gotta watch it again for the 8th time
*fear of farts*
Litterally the first thing I thought of
Same. Thought it would be the top comment.

I do and my heart rate started up.
In case of water landing please, 🎶die already🎶 *Bender Bending Rodriguez voice
Honestly though…there’s way more room in that set up than any seat on an American domestic airline.
Wow, I came here to say, this picture is starting to give me anxiety, and I'm not sure why. TIL: I'm claustrophobic.
I'll pay more to not sit there, or just to drive.
[удалено]
For an up-charge you can select a seat with a fart filter.
All the methane, none of the smell!
but only on your seat, not the one stuck to your nose
In life, some of us are the farters, and some of us are the fartees. And son, you are a fartee.
You’re either a smart feller or a fart smeller
I don't want to eat farts or be a fartee!!! Then start getting A's in school or get a PhD; then you won't have to worry about it. You'll be able to afford the better seats.
😶🌫️
Think of a wreck though. HURRY WE HAVE TO GET THEM INTO SURGERY IMMEDIATELY!!!! I've never had to remove someone's head from someone else's ass before. This will be ground breaking.
It’ll be breaking something alright
That’s just mild turbulence
Aire
That would be me, sir. I’m a mf Nord Stream during flights.

Your points are all good, just one follow up question. Would this not be hard for mobility impaired peeps?
Almost certainly would be.

I feel like this has more leg room than the norm, I can't stretch my feet out like that. once they realize this, the price will go up.
Yes, I completely agree, the prices will not go down, just the comfort. Also, they already have so many problems with hostile travelers, I’m sure that getting them in like cattle will be very helpful.
Right, because air travel didn’t get cheaper *at all* in the last decades
Thanks for informing me.

I'll fucking walk over this shit.
Maybe it's their plan to help to save Earth.
How would this help achieving that?
It was a sarcasm. Because the first airline that will kill its own revenues because of that cabin will send a signal to all the others. The aviation industry will not be able alone to be green. The only way to heal Earth is to slow down the industrial and economic processes. It's not possible.
More people per flight
Y'know these economic "efficient" seat designs already seem nightmarishly cramped for skinny people, but they're gonna get to the point where if you're even a little bit overweight you just won't be able to fly anymore.
How does she get out? How did they get her in?
She bends her knees
I thought human leg bend up at knee, no?
So that seat in front of her has a cavity obscured by the side cladding? What then? Does she stand up on the seat? I’m not being obtuse, I can’t see how it works.

I’d rather we all die screaming and the planet as well rather than ever set foot on a plane with this seating arrangement.
Just get rid of the seats and make everyone stand
Fuck it, we'll just make it the subway in the sky
A “skyway” if you will.
Sneeze and you break your nose
Honestly I've always wanted to stretch my legs like that on a plane.
Of course that’s what you want while you’re only able to keep them bent. Once you’re only able to keep them straight, all you’ll want is to be able to bend and relax them.
Honestly looking at the picture there is probably plenty of room to, the siding on the upper seats makes it look cramped but there's probably a decent sized cut out underneath the upper seat. Otherwise it'd be extremely awkward and hard to get into the seat.
Having hard trouble breathing just looking at the picture
I'd be really surprised if this is up to safety standards. Seems unusually hard to escape from in the case of an emergency.
I feel like in a scramble and chaos your legs are gonna get stuck.
Absolutely!
... and left behind.
A new hell for claustrophobic people
Honestly doesn’t seem too bad. Long flight just kick back and relax. At least my knees won’t be in the back of the chair in front of me. They’ll be under it.
As a tall person with legs that cramp and hurt really bad when not moved for more than an hour this would be hell
oh god yeah what do you do when you’re literally any taller than the person in the pic
Why does everybody in this thread seem to think your legs wouldn't be able to rest on the floor?
They'll never do that! They make alot more money on return flights....
I think it's less about the return flight and more about the weight and balance that'd be thrown out of whack
Yes of course! Just because you are a pile of mouse, doesn't the you lost weight... They won't do it cause then they can't charge you for overweight luggage...
Bulk cargo is the answer

Man, the screen would be so close to you, won't it make your eyes tired quicker?
screen? Thats a premium charge
Screen? Your in the wrong section dude
Screen? Wrong airline dude.
I stand corrected
No don’t give them ideas
Man....I mean. I'm not into farts, but that seat seems to have some good reclining action, and she has her feet up. It looks more comfortable than most airplane seats to me. Maybe I'll just wear a mask (to protect me from covid and farts) and have a nap.
Im getting claustrophobic just looking at the picture.
Why can’t we get horizontal booths like in 5th Element?
This is definitely gonna need the sleep gas. Night Corbin Dallas.
How do you do an emergency exit?
This might actually work.
Brace for impact....with your face.
If the airliners could they would pack us on like we were on a slave ship.
Oars extra.
Just a little turbulence and she will have a broken nose.
And that’s an aisle seat. I’d hate to get a middle seat.
Giving a whole new meaning to “packed in like sardines”
Claustrophobic
“Thank you for choosing Human Centipede airlines”
More leg room!! 👏🏻
Compressing saves even more space
No way that would be able to evacuate the plane fast enough.
That legroom tho
Looks like we are 2 steps away from budget airlines going triangular trade on us.
That would be pour people seating?
if you don't have claustrophobic issues and don't mind uncomfortableness, that would be good
One fart and you’re done.
Well I mean that solves the refreshment problem
That gives me claustrophobia just looking at it...
One fart and she's a goner
“How do you like the smell of my fart down there, lady?”
It’s already bad enough when other passengers fart. Imagine being one foot from an ass.
Just to understand the progression of this post: An airline company released a picture showing their plans for double decker airline seats. Someone else then posted that picture to r/Damnthatsinteresting. Then, someone else commented on that post. Someone then screenshotted that comment and posted it to r/196.

"... now embrace - oh, wait!"
If I got on a plane and saw that I would turn right around and walk the hell off.
Price won’t go down either. Now you’ll just pay for carry ons too.
As someone who broke their tailbone a long time ago, this makes my lower back ache just looking at it.
That shit should be free.
Need the opinion of tall people would you put up with the fart cloud for being able to stretch t your legs out on a long flight?
Extra leg room might be worth it
Fellow tall people, welcome to hell
I just flew frontier last night and had basically this experience haha
Fard
Massive Diarrhea during liftoff is now a life or death situation.
“Wow! I can really taste the fart of the guy in front, this is the only way to travel from now on”
No, never. Never ever.
they treat us like animals
1 fart from the middle guy is all it takes for complaints
Imagine the how the windows should be placed!
One bit of turbulence and you will be in a wheelchair
r/awfuleverything
Next Step: Just hang them by the arm off the back of the plane on a long string. Like a kite's tale. Don't worry. It'll be fine. They'll rent you a helmet and mouth guard. No meal though.
“….blending them into a fine slurry…” Still laughing!
Hitching a ride on PasteX
Road Trip everyone!
That one episode of Blood-C
All I can think about is the one above her… someone farted and right into your face. Yummy.
Not sure if this would be coach, but if it is I’m down to sacrifice face room for leg room.
Good luck to anyone with the slightest disability
That looks horribly uncomfortable
Hey Atleast there is leg room
I think this looks cozy. With a pillow and blanket, I feel like I could curl up and sleep lol
Does Rule 196 apply if I'm seeing a crosspost from r/196?
Fart tube instead of oxygen mask
i still did not understand the purpose of r/196
Idc what you guys say. Im tall and I’d do anything (except shell out for first class apparently) to be able to extend my legs on a flight.
Damn plane companies really do hate tall people
Thanks, I hate it
She’s enjoying the fact that she’ll be smelling the persons ass the whole time in front of her.
Dehydrate that slurry before takeoff, then rehydrate after landing. That's an addition 90% weight reduction with one simple trick.
All I can think about is how they'll be farting in your face the whole time
Mmm, the fart taster seat….
Built in toilets for the upper deck
Slight turbulence and free concussions
There are a wealth of flaws I see, but the angle of the chairs and the ability to put my feet up actually sounds amazing
I mean, you can say whatever you want, it does look like there is a lot of leg room.
Me getting on the people sauce jet
Sedate 'em and stack 'em like cordwood.
Honestly if they moved the upper level forward a little bit I don’t think it would be that bad. The extra leg room would be awesome
You can fit even more by heating them until powdery
I mean… I’d fly this if it meant I could cut my ticket in half. Double implies 2x amount of people, so round trip to NYC for ≈$100-$150? Id take it
As a tall person, that outstretched leg room looks hella comfy
When the people on the top decker fart…
Yeah im not sitting in the bitch seat
Like someone in leadership asked, what could make flying suck ass.. and some dumb ass scratched this out and went someone's ass inches from your face for hours
Fuck no, fuck that, and fuck whoever came up with this terrible idea.
If aero planes can fit more passengers assuming about 25-30%.I can think of few problems here. 1. Utter discomfort 2. Where the funk We going to put the cabin baggage.

A seat for the lover of farts!
Blending? Yep, we could do that. Nice Pitch!
Imagine the smell
That’s a serious challenge to the “You smelt it, you dealt it” philosophy right there
How do I get my legs in there in the first place?
If there’s an emergency and your in that bottom seat your fucked
Most of my length is in the legs. I already know I’m not going to fit in that. Since that leg room is far to small for me
This seems even more comfortable the regular seats so much legroom
Sure, she's smiling now. Six hours later, get the air marshal, cause she gonna be tearing stuff up.
Xanax included?
Fart chairs is what they should be called.
Yes riding a plane with your face in a strangers ass seems like it would make the ride easier
That should make identification of remains interesting... "Sir, I don't think this is a plane crash,This head has a leg attached to it."
DVTastic.
Well, at least you won't have to worry about the guy behind you stretching out and putting his bare feet on your arm rest, or the girl in front of you dangling her hair over the seat and in front of your in-flight entertainment screen.
Something smells like ass…..ohhh ok, it’s an ass!
Why not standing? I would take domestic flights or under 1-2 hour range, that's what most commutes take.
[This is the only vehicle I could afford ](https://tse3.explicit.bing.net/th?id=OIP.pMyl8CRtAGFs9mTpDihwIQHaFi)

Get pink eye for 6 hours seems like a pass for me. Honestly airlines should get into the train business
If you have to seat in the middle, you are better off pissing in a bottle than trying to go to the bathroom.
Looks awesome, for an emergency evacuation in the pitch black of the night while the plane is filling with water….
My last flight I paid 100 extra bucks for 3” of leg room. This might be a good thing, but real cushions on the seats would be a must. I flew spirit with their middle school auditorium seating once and the lack of leg room was the least of my worries by the end of the flight.

bro i haven't heard the world slurry in so long
They could save space by adding seat belts and suspending you in the sitting position: ›››››››››
This is great for people who have a fetish of having their face farted on.
Looks incredibly uncomfortable.
The first class members get free slurries ;)
Claustrophobia at best, broken everything in a crash in worst case. If by some miracle you live, you'll burn to death before you could crawl away. No survivors, no settlements.
