In reply to the discussion: Here's what it might be like to travel on a double decker airplane seat (Nope Nope Nope) [View all]wryter2000
(46,122 posts)27. How would you get into the middle seat?

I remember several years ago they were going to experiment with benches passengers strapped them selves onto. Never heard anything more about that.
