You’re effectively tucked underneath the above passengers in a space and position CNN’s Francesca Street called “pretty claustrophobic” when she tested it this week in Hamburg. Down below, the seats hang over much of the floor space and have to be flipped up and down so as to not force people to crawl across each other to their spots. However, at least there’s space to breathe up top, and shuffle to the middle seat.

You’d be a fool not to welcome innovative principles that offer more space on a flight, however, Núñez Vicente's design leaves a lot to be desired. However, Núñez Vicente said the seats could also fit in traditional wide-body craft including the Boeing 747 and Airbus A330. The Flying V, which places the cabins along the wings rather than the standard tubular design we all know and love, is aerodynamically shaped to cut fuel costs by 20 percent. Núñez Vicente's seats were first designed to fit the Flying V, a futuristic concept crafted at Germany’s Delft University of Technology.
He’s also “in talks with big name airliners,” per CNN. A prototype of Alejandro Núñez Vicente's “Chaise Longue Airplane Seat” debuted at the 2022 Aircraft Interiors Expo in Hamburg, Germany this week, and he’s apparently been granted funds to continue the project. However, a newly designed double-decker seating arrangement could (in theory) end this issue in larger jetliners, giving people back their precious personal space while adding extra seats carriers want. In the last 30 years, economy passengers have lost an average of 3-to-4 inches of legroom and 2-to-3 inches of seat width, according to Insider, making for cozy, uncomfortable air travel across the U.S. in 1914, airline seating has been in a perpetual state of flux, with companies continuing to cram as many people as possible into limited spaces and lighter aircraft in hopes of maximizing profits.
