The serious non-joke answer is the same as the one for these standing seats: emergency exit speed. When an airplane crash lands you have like less than 2 minutes to get everyone out before the huge inferno happens and roasts people. So for standing seats that pack even more people into an airplane, they have to prove that they can still get everyone out before the deadline. For laying-down seats they would have to prove the same thing.
Not only that, but also the mess it would make. Airlines make good money off of selling food and drinks, how are you going to consume those laying down? Very messily, that's how. More mess = more time spent cleaning the plane = less time in the air = less ticket sales. Not to mention the loss in drink and food sales from people who don't want to do that laying down. It's a lose lose for the airline.
I would pay a premium ticket price to get a lay down seat at the back of the plane and have no food service in that zone. That gets rid of the food sales loss, for which I have never paid for anyway, as I'd be paying a higher ticket price. I guess at that point there is still a concern regarding a mess, since I can bring my own snacks, but it's not like I would be getting some memory foam mattress with Egyptian cotton sheets with the way airlines would implement this anyway. I'd get a long ~~pleather~~ vinyl cushion with maybe a standard pillow.
It would be worse than what I got in the Navy, slightly, but still better than any shit airplane seat I've sat in.
There is already a premium ticket price for lay down seats on large commercial passenger jets. Many of those first class seats go all the way down.
I've been on enough planes to believe 2 minutes of evacuation time will see 5% evacuated and 95% trampled before the fiery inferno.
Remarkably, it has happened. People suddenly decide to pay attention to authority when they’re in a terrifying situation they’ve never experienced.
What I've chosen to glean from this is that I should inflict varied and new terrors upon coworkers to help keep us on track.
excellent, the boss will be proud of the new performance numbers, therapy will no longer be covered by insurance to improve the sense of dread.
Pop me out the side with compressed air like a decoy flare
"Missile inbound. Deploying passengers."
New ultra economy just dropped. Cheap prices, but when Russian SAMs lock on, you are now chaff.
In the contract: obligation to flail your arms and legs widely for maximum distraction.
Just lean it forward and have everyone slide down and out of the emergency slide.
