The media reported on the plans of low-cost airlines to introduce standing room on airplanes by 2026

Budget airlines around the world may introduce standing room on airplanes by 2026. This was reported on May 22 by the British newspaper Daily Mail.

According to the publication, bicycle-type padded seats that allow passengers to tilt at an angle without sitting down completely may be introduced by Avionteriors as early as 2026.

It is reported that such a step will increase the passenger capacity of airliners by 20%. The vertical seats are called Skyrider 2.0 and were first presented at the Aircraft Interiors Expo 2018 in Hamburg, the material says.

The Daily Mail notes that no airline has yet officially confirmed that it plans to introduce standing room in order to save money.
