Holy crap!

As a very frequent flier, Fausta's discovery of Airbus plans to make us stand up during flights to cram more people in is absolutely horrifiying.

Well, they do let you lean your butt against something - not sure what you call it - certainly *not* a seat! And there is nowhere to stow carryon luggage. And since you don't have a lap if you're standing - gawd - you can't even use your laptop.

And the children ... what about the children? Are they going to stand on top of each other?

How can anyone read in that position, or nap? Next thing you know they will load us into planes, hook us up to catheters so we don't have to walk to the restroom, thereby eliminating aisles, and strapping us to the standing room only 'seats' - and our feet stapled to the floor and our mouths duct taped so as not to bother the flight attendants.

Gahhhhh!
