Adding decent cupholders to cars didn't make cars bigger. Similarly, adding decent cupholders to airplanes is not going to reduce passenger space.

- Retric 4y agoCommercial aviation could stick as many as 850 passengers on an A380-800 in it’s maximum configuration, but the most an airline actually gets is 538 because of business and first class passengers having more room. Increasing passenger space by even 1 inch or just a pound of weight per seat makes a real difference.
- midoridensha 4y agoBetter cupholders do not decrease space at all. Some (better) airlines even have them: they flip down from the seatback. They literally take no space at all. This is ridiculous.
