When it comes time to book a seat on an aeroplane, you might find yourself in the future pondering the question, “Top or bottom?” Providing, of course, that airlines decide to adopt this particular configuration for their seats. This configuration stores luggage beneath the seats, eliminating the need for overhead bins in the aircraft and freeing up additional space for passengers seated in the front and back rows.
Double-decker buses are a common sight in many cities across the globe, both in developed and developing countries. Nevertheless, have you ever observed or even considered the possibility of double-decker seats on aeroplanes? An photograph that was published not too long ago of a double-decker aeroplane recently went viral, which sparked a discussion among users of the internet about how comfortable the journey may be.
At the Aircraft Interiors Expo (AIX) in Hamburg, Germany, businessman Alejandro Nez Vicente debuted the modernised design of the cheap jet seat. People have conflicting opinions over whether or not they want to implement the idea for a double-decker aeroplane layout, which has caused quite a ruckus on the internet.
Pictures of the prototype reveal that the first and last rows of seats on the aircraft are offset from one another, rather than being level with one another. The purpose of this idea is to provide passengers more space and legroom to move about in.
Despite the fact that the design has been successful in generating a lot of curiosity, nobody appears to be extremely impressed by it. Flatulence was cited as a potential issue by several people in the event that the concept was implemented on a commercial aeroplane. The layout of the seats is problematic, as several sceptics pointed out on Reddit, because people sitting in the bottom row might find themselves with their faces next to the behind of another person.
According to a number of customers, individuals who struggle with movement will have a difficult time, particularly if they are unable to reserve a seat in the front row. On the other hand, not all of the comments were negative. Several people believe that the design would unquestionably provide customers with additional legroom and would not provide any challenges to individuals who take pleasure in sitting in chairs that can be reclined.
