In case anyone believed that airlines were really interested in passenger comfort and an enjoyable flight experience, check out their interest in the Skyrider 2.0. It's a "seat" that actually involves the passenger more or less standing upright while resting on a saddle, slung together in rows that are a grand total of 23 inches apart.
When will these abominable operations go bankrupt and get taken over by someone who actually does think that it might be a good idea for people using your service to have a good time doing so? Not soon enough.

Everyone who has declared "Sitting is the new smoking!" as they badgered their employees to work on treadmill desks should be forced to make a LaGuardia to Sydney flight in one of these.
I wonder how fast you can get out of one of those, packed in as you are like a sardine. I think a few years ago there was another brutal seat design that was ultimately shot down because it would have been impossible for passengers to evacuate quickly enough in the case of an emergency.
Not to mention how much longer it will take to get out of the airplane with all those extra people packed aboard, even if you can get out of the "seat" itself with relative ease.
And I would presume that ladies and Scotsmen would find the saddle arrangement somewhat uncomfortable should they be wearing the clothing one often associates with them
