Depends on how you get there. Back of the envelope, 1/2 G of thrust would get the plane up to cruise speed in about 10 minutes. Cabin gravity would be at about 1.12 Gs total. Mind you, it'd be a pretty steep "slope". :-) That would be no worse than a bit uncomfortable for most people. The more interesting scenario is at the other end. Negative 0.5G horizontal would probably require flipping the seats around so you face aft. The alternative would be to truss up all the pax like chickens on a spit to keep their limbs from flopping around. |
