If you have seen pictures of the notorious double-level aircraft seat concept and thought that “this is never going to happen”-think again.
Aviation Startup Chase Long, the brain behind the controversial dual -level seat, announced today that it is “looking for some early stage ideas” with large aviation airbus.
This collaboration with the heavyweight aircraft is an important step in the journey of this set design, ranging from college student project to potentially air reality.
Designer and Chase Lango CEO Elejendro Niaz Viocent told CNN Travel that he was grateful that the Airbus sees the “two -level seating capacity”.
A representative from Airbus confirmed CNN’s journey that “Chase is looking for some early -stage concepts with Airbus with Airbus with Airbus on a two -level seating solution for commercial aircraft.”
The representative added that “given the nature of this early stage level,” Airbus preferred not to comment at this stage. ”
Niaz Vaucent’s Chase Long Set design is to remove the Crooks overhead cabin to allow two level seats in the cabin of the same aircraft.
The idea is that passengers will have the option of baking upper row or bottom row-and while the lower level images may have minimal appeal, the lower passengers can enjoy their legs and enjoy the extra leg room – Nianos Viocent says the high level is also designed to give “big rack line angles” and “the possibility of raising legs” compared to your average economy’s plane seat.
Niaz Viocent initially designed for the economy cabins last year before repeating a business class/first class.
CNN Travel tested the initial prototype of both concepts and concluded that while the lower levels have the potential for classrophobia, the growing leg room could potentially cancel the cabin fever for some passengers.
Also, Vestent says he cannot tell how a cabin can target Airbus with the help of Airbus – and he can’t currently confirm how many new concepts may be similar to the previously displayed concepts. Yes. There are currently no conceptual images available or there are details on new designs.
But the Chase Long goal is the same: “Improving space” in the same cabin for passengers and airlines for passengers and airlines.
At multiple occasions, the design of Niaz Voicent has gone viral – some potential travelers have made jokes about the air passing, while others suggest that this design is a blatant tactic to put more travelers into the cabin.
Niaz Viocent has emphasized that he is not trying to end the plane regularly. It has imagined the cabin of an aircraft with a complex length in the center, which contains two rows of traditional plane seating.
The fact is that the concept “can give the airline a new revenue stream or a new way to earn more money from these passengers or put more seats in Put into the expo – just one. Added the bonus, he insists.
And in general, Naz Vestent believes in the old saying that there is no such thing as bad advertising. The constant interest in the design of the aviation industry shows that airlines and aircraft manufacturers are anxious to the social media response to the seat.
“Every innovation has very good reviews and bad reviews,” says Nesees Vaucent.
“Of course, there are defects here, and social media is one,” says Niaz Voceant. “This is a present. But if the truth, its benefits, these seats on two levels, are completely at the top of these defects.
Niaz Viocent confirmed that the Airbus Partnership is not special and that the startup is “open to mutual cooperation”.
In the meantime, it is unlikely that you will soon be seen sitting on a double level on the airplane near your plane at any time-as Niaz Vecents acknowledged, “The long growth is still there.”
“However, with the support of Airbus, this is a realistic and achievement goal that will improve passengers’ journey.”
