"I'm someone who would happily pay up for a lie-flat more frequently if it was priced at 2-3x a regular ticket rather than 5x+. "
replyIf you look at pictures it seems like the lie-flat seats take up roughly 6x the space of what the economy seats take up.
The new, larger narrowbodies are adding a lav at the front of economy which helps with this. https://www.united.com/en/us/fly/company/aircraft/boeing-737...
replyTrue, but it's not all roses. If you like to sit at the front of economy to exit as fast as possible when arriving, you will be sitting next to a heavily-used lav which is not enjoyable. You have to sit 4-6 rows back from the lav to avoid the annoyance.
replyThere will always be good seats and bad seats. They can't all be good seats.
replyApparently paying for an upgrade to a nicer cabin isnt an option either.
