regular seats

Do you like airline seats like this? Well their new design could make for a very uncomfortable flight…

Do you hate sitting next to a complete stranger when you fly? Well a proposed new cabin design could make you even more uncomfortable!

new seats

 

Each passenger would sit facing adjacent passengers, instead of everyone facing the front of the plane.

The official reason for this: “to increase cabin density while also creating seat units that increase the space available at the shoulder and arm area by creating an overlap in the shoulder areas of adjacent seats.”

I do not like this idea, too close for comfort in my opinion.
