This company wants you to travel 'standing' on your flight—and it could save you money via CNBCMakeIt
Sometimes it feels like airlines have already stripped everything they can from your Basic Economy seat to make it cheaper — the space is cramped and there are no amenities, sometimes you don't even get space in the overhead bin.
According to the company, the contraption"ensures an increased upright passenger position, allowing installation of the seat at a reduced pitch." Pitch is the distance between your seat and the one in front of you, and the average economy seat in the U.S. already doesn't leave that much wiggle room at 31 to 32 inches.
But it's unclear how much airfare passengers would be able to save by purchasing standing seats, and experts aren't optimistic about the seats' success.
