The upright seat is called Skyrider 2.0 and is a horses (or bicycle) seat with back.
Low -cost airlines will officially launch the “upright positions” in 2026, as the model of the company that manufactures them has passed the British security ratings.
The upright seat is called Skyrider 2.0 and was presented by the manufacturer Aviointeriors at the Aircraft Interiors Expo 2018 in Hamburg.
Essentially, it is a seat in the style of a horse or bicycle with a back, while steel poles connect each row to the roof and floor.
Skyrider 2.0 is expected to be used by low cost, initially on flights that will not exceed two hours.
Aviointeriors claims that Skyrider 2.0 costs 50% less than typical financial seats and has a reduced number of components for “minimum maintenance costs”.
“The design of this seat allows carriers to increase the number of passengers by 20 percent, allowing increased profits for airlines,” the company said.
According to the Daily Mail, Ryanair CEO Michael O’Leary has already expressed his desire to use the “upright bunk” on his company’s flights.
As he has said, he wants the Boeing 737 and 800 to have 10 rows of orthons and 15 rows of traditional seats.
In fact, O’Leary has stated that these tickets may cost from 1 to 5 pounds of England.
