Bunks may not take up more space, there are long-distance buses with seats that convert into bunks for the same number of passengers.

- jandrese 8y agoThose seats are huge compared to airline seats. If you had that much space in the airline seat this wouldn't be nearly as necessary.
- olliej 8y agoIgnoring other issues, that means you're making the seats movable in significant ways, so they have to be engineered to take the loads of landing repeatedly for decades without breaking - that will probably increase the weight a lot (compare the construction of plastic bench seats in most buses, to the construction of long haul passenger buses.
- digi_owl 8y agoDunno if it is still the case, but trains used to offer that as well.
