Many of us know how stressful and uncomfortable flying can be.

It seems like airports adjust how they do things all the time which means you’ve gotta prepare for changes before you even arrive at the airport. You also have to deal with questions like, are you really getting the best deal on your flight? Did you pack everything you need? (I know I’m gonna forget something important…) So many questions! And then when you’re on the plane, it’s very likely you’ll be dealing with less-than-ideal personal space and legroom. Those seats are pretty close together as-is, but what if there were more seats ABOVE you? Yes, that may become a thing.

According to CNN, a 23-year-old airplane seat designer Alejandro Núñez Vicente has introduced double-decker airplane seating. Last year his concept went viral and garnered many different reactions from passengers — “some outraged, some bemused, some intrigued, some all of the above.”

Now Núñez Vicente is back at the Aircraft Interiors Expo (AIX) in Hamburg, Germany, to showcase his new design of this concept, officially called the Chaise Longue. In response to the negative reactions, he said there’s no such thing as bad publicity and that “most of the times when they show you something new, everyone hates it at first, they’re scared of change. But the more you show it, and the more you develop it, and the more they see it, the more they get used to it.”

His concept started as a college project in 2021, but has now “catapulted the concept into the public consciousness” after being nominated for a 2021 Crystal Cabin Award. Today, “Núñez Vicente has sponsors, partnership deals and is in regular conversation with ‘the biggest players in the industry.’”

Personally, I’d rather not sit for hours with a chair right in front of my face. But it does look like there’s more legroom with this design than we typically see on an airplane, so maybe he’s onto something there. What do you think? Would you fly on a plane with seats of this design?

So does this mean we could see this design on commercial flights in the future? It’s possible! Be sure to stay tuned to DFB — we’ll keep you updated on all the latest travel news you need to know about.

One airline is weighing passengers before their flights — here’s why.
