Couldn't help but remind me of this flash of genius from a few years ago:

Lol I wouldn’t put it past carriers in Canada, however this is NEW seating, so it won’t make it to C registered aircraft for another 20 years after their initial release

What has a tall enough cabin to make that work? What has enough emergency exits for the increased passenger load it allows?

Soon it’ll be just a bunch of coffins stacked on top of eachother…
Re: The Future of Airline Seating?
Just get rid of the overhead bins….nobody actually uses those, right? I think it was EasyJet who ordered A319s with a second over wing exit on each side, just so they could cram 156 seats into them legally. So there is precedent….

I actually like it. I am very tall, and the guy in front of me puts his seat back, which I suppose is his right, and now my knees are pressing against the seat. And the tray table is now weirdly close to me so I have to eat my meal like a T-rex, with my wrists all bent because I don't want to stick my elbows out to the sides. And now the screen is in my face.
This way looks like your leg-room and distance from the screen are unchallenged no matter what the guy in front does.

If I'd known I was going to live this long, I'd have taken better care of myself

The bottom seats have leg space, however the top does not.
When I retire, I’ll miss the clowns, not the circus.
