This seems incompatible with a pretty high proportion of Americans.
Y'all getting kinda thicc too, no offense.
It's funny because you don't know which country he's from but it still applies anyway because everyone is getting fatter

With your face right at prime fart receiving level. Wtf.
Even for the people who would get off on that, their joy would turn to frustration when the flight attendant asked them to stop masturbating.

Pretty soon they're just going to roofie people and pack them into planes like sardines.
Multipass!

I don't absolutely hate it, but I'm 6'3", so fully stretching my legs out on a plane is always just a pipe dream.
I'm sure they'd make them fit only average size people, unfortunately.

I think they should just have rows of bunk beds. It's much easier to stack something flat than people with their awkward bends at the hips and knees.
unsurprisingly the ship and train industry figured this shit out like literally a century ago
The airlines can maximize that idea as well. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brooks_(1781_ship)#/media/File:Slaveshipposter.jpg

Window seat dude needs to take a piss, watch the fun ...
Also, why the fuck is she smiling?!
I think these only go down the center based on the photo.
She's smiling because she's being paid to smile.

One day they'll invent super-economy class where you just get strapped to the wings and released over your destination. Parachutes will cost extra.

As someone who doesn't have claustrophobia, I feel claustrophobic just looking at this. Then again, I've never been on a plane before, and for all I know this might be better :/

at that point just give me general anaesthesia and put me in an airline shipping coffin so at least i don't have to be conscious for the horror show
Someone somewhere just pulled out some graph paper and is sketching a concept.

That doesn't actually look to bad considering what we have today
These people smile like they've never rode in an airplane with more than 3 people
"why do people prefer trains??"
Honestly I wish that was the case in the US.
For most people, trains are not a alternative.
Often trains cost more. Many train stations are messes and share space with busses.
I desperately want to take a train anywhere. BUT
A) It always costs at least as much as a plane but often much much more
B) it's slower than driving!
C) the stops are so limited you basically have to follow major coastal cities or you're SOL
Literally if any of these three things were changed I would take weekend trips all the time

No, wait. This is actually not a bad idea.
Look closely. First of all there's a rigid barrier between the lower and upper seat. That means that fart gasses won't get through, unlike current seats where farts just spread everywhere around a person, so only the upper seats will be affected.
Second, the lady has her feet up, meaning she has enough leg room to do so. This is a big advantage because you can kick your feet up on your underseat baggage while you sleep or stretch your legs. It's much better than the current layout where you can barely move at all.
No offense, but I think anyone with a negative opinion of this layout is wrong.

There are laws regulating how to transport pigs and cows to the slaughterhouse. They have more space than the passengers on this plane.
As a taller person, if this gives me sufficient legroom and a seat that actually distributes the weight over my whole thighs such that I can sit somewhat comfortable, this seems like a major upgrade to me.

Transatlantic human cattle
The sadness really hits when you see this was last year, and not 1991 where the concept should have stayed.
