A design that reconfigures airplane cabins with double-decker, lie-flat seats in premium economy is being touted as a possible solution for fliers looking for more protection from the spread of Covid-19.

A design that reconfigures airplane cabins with double-decker lie-flat seats in premium economy is being touted as a possible solution for fliers looking for more protection from the spread of Covid-19.

O'Neill was inspired by a sleepless flight between New York to Singapore a few years ago, on board what wasSeated in premium economy,O'Neill realized halfway through the super long-haul journey that he wasn't going to get any shut eye. Zephyr's double-decker concept utilizes the space that exists between a standard seat and an overhead bin.

The idea's still in its infancy, although O'Neill says he's identified an engineering partner -- and he's been in conversation with four major airlines, including US carrier Delta, although there are no firm commitments right now.

Why did USA allowed British Racist hate spreader into USA from England. Government said exception was made as it was in National Interest!!! What is this National Interest that requires a hate spreader allowed into USA during a pandemic?

God heal the world.....

In the seat cover... last will template

I'm a GOAT new rap song Ronny E

Manipulated media ❗

Like this will happen anytime soon👎

Planes have air filter. The chance of getting infected is very slim, experts claim. But then again, staying at airports is probably a different story

The bs continues as cases go up Quarter end is so close and I'm impressed we are going to make it till the end of it.. but at what cost?

The more air travel is rising the more this virus could spread. We are still barely in the middle of self containment so I wouldn’t risk flying anywhere . There’s enough mayhem to begin with

Yes! It's not about feeling safe. It's about feeling comfy. It's the American way.

Please Stay Safe EVERYONE...!!!

Wearing a face diaper isn’t what I would call comfortable.

How about you ask the Indian government why they are not resuming international flights, like the rest of the world? There are thousands of US nationals still stuck there and can’t leave.

i wish i was black. Then i wuld matter too 🤔

like they are planning this FAKE PLANDEMIC will be going on forever? Changing airplanes? Idiots

nice moves!

Hope that useful

Is this the end of sardine seating in planes? It's more than welcome

This video reminds me of no airport or airplane I have ever been in

SMDH

Just issue a new disposable masks and tubing to passengers to plug into air outlets above the seats like current masks do. Easy Peasy. Trash receptacles on site for deplaning passengers to toss used masks into.

Is it out of concern for passenger comfort or need for paying customers?

Global pandemic sweeps the world, airplane manufacturers are like, 'Can we save 1 more dime by cramming *more* people in?'

FFS. It JUST doesn't work that way. What? Covid-19 is scared of bunk beds? Scared so hard it just dies or petrifies and doesn't get swept into the massive recirculating air system of an airplane? Who thinks of these things? 12 year olds? And who approves these ideas? 6 year olds?

The laying down part looks great if you're under 6ft and 160 lbs. The sitting part I can't even visualize. The 'cushions' are like 8 inches off the ground. At that point you may as well just give us all bunks like a submarine.

Um Good idea

Its at least a little more safer

Sure! The airlines certainly have the budget to do this.

Wtf?

This reminds me of all the space-age designs they were dreaming up for transport in the 1960's and 1970's. Hopefully this is a bit more practical than it was then.

NEWS network are painting a world that will have to use mask ,stay home , dividers in planes BS media networks know this will past and a vaccine will come soon. EVEN NOW TREATMENTS of this virus has improve 70 percent in last than 4 months. GET OFF THE FEAR TACTICS stop BS..

We are nearing peak Idiocracy. Maybe these designers can collaborate?

I can’t imagine the average adult climbing up there.

I'd sack the architect 🤔👍

Let’s do it!!!

United Airlines creates 'internal travel restriction list' for fliers who won't wear masksUnited Airlines announced Monday that any passenger who refuses to comply with its mask requirement will be placed on an 'internal travel restriction list,' starting Thursday. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Imagine wearing a mask for 10+ Hrs straight... Good for them. Any company, including airlines, should set rules for protecting a) their employees and b) their customers, and if a-holes who claim someone is violating their rights just for not wearing a damn mask - screw 'em. Glad to see united having a pair.

Trump and biden dancing This won’t go over well. Baton down. How does your mind deceive you? ' Free yourself' your mind is obsessed with what other minds are thinking (mind reading). Your mind is horribly competitive and insecure, comparing you to the neighbors, co-workers, friends..
