Is this the future of airline seats?

The question of how many seats an airline can fit on an aircraft is a crucial one, as it can mean the difference between profitability and loss. The trend in seat development, especially in economy class, is towards higher density and lighter seats. However, there must be a limit to this. The Skyrider seat by Aviointeriors is pushing the boundaries of what is possible in this regard, sacrificing comfort for the sake of fitting more people onto an airplane. Only time will tell if this seat will ever actually make it onto an aircraft, and if so, whether passengers will be happy to “sit” on them for the duration of a flight.

Would you be willing to travel on the Skyrider seat on your next flight?
