That actually looks interesting, but a couple things come to mind:
- Do the upper seats mean you need to scrunch down to get into them because of the height? That sould just really suck
- The seat looks like it actually reclines to let you stretch your legs out, and then bring it back upright to get in/out
- How much space are you actually saving to do this? If this increases capacity, it'll increase fuel, cost, blah blah
- Can you imagine if you were in the upper seats and spilled your drink, and then it now goes to the peeps below?  >:(

Looks like it's impossible to use a laptop in those. And no overhead bins either.

- being on the bottom and having your face inches away from the above's butt = not a great coast-to-coast flying experience IMO

And on the lower seats at least it looks like there is also no under-seat storage.  There's, like, nothing good about that lower seat IMO: like, I dunno if an airline could pay ME enough to sit in one of those for a long flight

I remember one year on the way back from SD, I managed to sleep a couple of hours sitting up in a plane full of young kiddos. On a cross county overnight flight, not sitting up would be really good. <<<----- only situation!
I never can sleep on planes.

Happy Texas Chain Saw Massacre day!  On this date in 1973 is the day in canon where a van of teens were killed, namely Sally Hardesty and her invalid brother, Franklin & friends. It is all the more tragic in that they were young. But, had they lived very, very long lives, they could not have expected nor would they have wished to see as much of the mad and macabre as they were to see that day. For them an idyllic summer afternoon drive became a nightmare. The events of that day were to lead to the discovery of one of the most bizarre crimes in the annals of American history, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre.

Yesterday, John Cena was signing bottles of wine at a local supermarket here in San Diego.  It was a good opportunity to get an autograph and a selfie if you didn't get an opportunity at a con.
