In an effort to cram as many people as possible into an airplane, a company from Italy called Aviointeriors, have created the Skyrider, which cuts passenger space down to just 23 inches.
The Skyrider seat is being unveiled next week at the Aircraft Interiors Expo Americas conference in Long Beach, and could soon find its way into many commercial airlines that are looking to save space.
The Skyrider solves the problem of leg room, by basically standing the passenger up. According to USA today, these saddle seats could create a whole new class on airplanes. First Class, Coach, and the sardine section.
Budget airlines are already toying with the idea of creating a standing room only ticket in order to get more people on their planes, so these Skyrider seats are not too far of a stretch.
