- tacostakohashi 9y agoSure, but it's the main case worth thinking about, because from the airline's perspective, when the plane is 100% utilized the fares are highest so that's when the extra 2 rows make the biggest difference. From the customer's perspective, nobody cares about small seats if the seat next to you is empty anyway.
- ebalit 9y agoIt might be possible to adapt the layout based on utilization. Fold the first rows and move every rows forward a bit. Doing this while minimizing the weight and complying with regulations is seems challenging though.
