Default Boeing Flies Blended Wing Body Research Aircraft


"Phil" wrote

Imagine if an
airline started flying an airplane with twice as much legroom, more
aisles, and wider seats. Maybe even seats that really recline. And
at a lower cost. Let's say 5 or 10 percent lower. I bet they would
fill those planes on most flights. Wouldn't you be willing to pay
less to get more?


Nope.

While I realize space is cramped on airplanes, I find the space allotted
quite bearable.

I get on a airliner for one reason; to get where I want to go a long
distance away, quickly, and cheaply.

Cram me in, and let me spend the extra saved money, the way I want to, at
the other end.
