How far will we go for a cheap flight asks online specilaist airflights.co.uk

Dalaman, TurkeyA new passenger airplane seating design is being considered in the UK where travellers are made to sit facing each other in rows, a bit like a bus or tube train. It is thought that this may result in cheaper air travel in the future.
If it is ever adopted this new seating plan for short hop flights likely offered by budget airlines has the potential to increase passenger capacity up to 50% and it is being mooted that savings in flying costs could be up to a third per seat.
Under this new idea, short-haul passenger would have to accept trading the normal aircraft type seats for flip-up versions with their backs to the window.
The aisles will be too narrow on these flights to allow normal catering trolleys to operate so it will inevitably be a "basic journey" say on line flight agent airflights.co.uk
The designers say that the idea is aimed at travellers who are flying for short journeys, maybe under an hour, designers say that the plane would be lighter, more fuel efficient and allow quick airport turnaround times.
The airline industry is rightly always looking to innovate say airflights.co.uk however the majority of our customers are families and couples going on a leisure break and whilst cost is always an important factor comfort is also a major consideration. They are going on holiday after all and want a relaxing flight both to and from their chosen destination. Flight facilities have been stripped away over the last few years, first it was meals and wine, then having to pay for luggage and now some of the more budget conscious airlines are charging to check in. There is a limit to how far the leisure consumer will allow the flight to be degraded say airflights. We are specialists in cheap flights and offer huge choice through our online portals however our customers are clear in their requirements of wanting the very best cost available but still with an enjoyable flying experience. We will just have to see if innovations such as this new seating plan are attractive enough in cost saving to tempt the discerning holiday maker.
