Today's paper related that one of the major airlines has started selling an upgraded class..."Economy Comfort"...for $19 to $99, if available, you can buy a seat with three inches more legroom!
Years ago, when the air travel became consecutively more and more "pleasurable", I came up with another class that would have really been economical comfort...
Booking online is problematic...checking in at the kiosks is problematic...flights are late or canceled or switched, overbooked, weather-delayed, security concerned, not equipment-serviced, and consequently mechanically not functioning, filthy, air quality contaminated, with no food, one small beverage, no leg room, no seat room, with rude flight attendants, filled with extra costs, and overused carry on luggage racks, and as a result have passengers that might exhibit "flight rage"!
To carry more passengers, and be further price-competitive, with more "economical comfort", the passengers could be "gased" to fall asleep when they check in and then they could be stacked on stretchers horizontally about 8 high in the cabin, and then awakened when they reach their destination!
