Wait. They have bar stools with seat belts?

Yet another reason not to fly.

Eventually, they will find a way to get passengers into the overhead compartments.

For a quick flight I would do it, not a long one.
Heck I don’t have enough life insurance as it is, if it did go down at least the wife will make out okay.

All they need to do is scatter some straw and the floor and they could eliminate the need for bathroom space.
Actually it is fine with me just as long as the UK bureacrats are required to travel by the lowest class on these flights.

This is the chair I sat in while going from Papeete to Moorea in the mid 90s. There were 4 on the plane and mine was next to the pilot! Thank God is was less than a 20 mile ride.....

If I am just looking to get to point A from point B cheap and fast I could care less myself. Heck considering how much leg room they give you now I would probably be more comfortable standing and holding on than I would sitting in the economy class anyway.

Reminds me of a “Bloom County” cartoon, in which Opus, the penguin, can’t find his seat, only to find that he had been sold the toilet seat. Just as he starts to think the flight may not be too bad, a remarkably obese woman arrives to share the lavatory.

inflation takes on many subtle forms. 10 apartments in a building that was build for one family a hundred years ago, for example.
