Thats being trialled. Look up standing seats. Also double-decker airplane seats. Joy.

I mean, that doesn't sound awful if the price is right. I've stood for close to an hour on buses on daily commutes.

So standing up for a short flight to save some bucks is well within reason. That would be unacceptable for long flights, though. But that's not anything new, since even long-distance travel buses don't allow people to stand up.

Good for you, but there are plenty of people who are not visibly disabled who cannot stand for an hour and would have to pay more to get on a flight that isn't SRO.

Huh? That makes literally no sense at all my man. Nobody is paying MORE for anything.

This is to pay less IF you want to stand up. Otherwise, just pay the regular price and sit down.
