This new airplane seat will basically require you to stand during the flight
Italian airline seat manufacturer Aviointeriors has come up with a design for an airplane seat that it says would make flights a lot cheaper. But the seat comes with a catch: Passengers would essentially have to stand up throughout the flight.
The aviation manufacturer's concept for the plane seat, Skyrider 2.0, was originally introduced at Hamburg's annual Aircraft Interiors Expo in April 2018. On Tuesday, an updated seat design, called Skyrider 3.0, was introduced at this year's conference.
While the original design featured yellow seats separated by silver poles, the newer model includes black seats with yellow-paint-splatter detailing. Poles have also been removed from the new design.
Speaking to CNN, Aviointeriors' engineering designer Gaetano Perugini said Skyrider 3.0 would allow "standard economy, premium economy or business class, and ultra-basic economy" sections to be located within a single cabin.
On Twitter, avid travelers were not impressed with the updated seating models.
