Airbus acknowledges that passenger comfort is an afterthought but says it’s an acceptable tradeoff. “Reduced comfort remains tolerable for the passengers in as much as the flight lasts only one or a few hours,” the patent states. None of this was a secret. Look at the ads. 40 years ago when the 747 was released American Airlines (AAL) used the extra space to create not one but two swinging lounges in the sky. Five years ago the Dreamliner promised less space but groovy colors and lights for comfort. Now Airbus is selling the idea of a slave galley, park bench, torture chamber model where passengers who dont row presumably get stuffed out the window. Its lousy customer service but the margins are to die for. finance.yahoo/news/think-flying-is-bad-now--wait-till-you-see-this-125711539.html
