If you read this blog at all, you know one thing I do is travel. I make every attempt to minimize travel as it is very disruptive to my personal life, but sometimes it’s necessary. Earlier this week while driving into the office listening to the radio, I heard a story about “stand-up seating.”
You have to admit, it’s the next “jumbo shrimp” in terms of good oxymorons…but I digress.
Here’s the summary: Airbus allegedly has been reviewing this idea for it’s new A380 aircraft for service in Asian markets. You have to admit, it would help them live up to their name. (An aside, the Airbus website leaves alot to be desired. It’s a resource pig and slow. I’m sure someone thinks it’s pretty, but jeez, make it accessible and useful first.)
Airbus denies that they are doing any such thing. Time will tell. Who knows, standing up might be better than being wedged into current seating. I remain skeptical.
