Topic Reading-Vol.833 7/23/2014

Dear MEL School’s Topic Readers,
Coming soon? Standing instead of sitting on planes
It just seems to be a matter of how passengers think or expect how they are transported from point A to B. Think of a bus or train ride which often keeps you standing for some time, do you think it’s fair to pay the same amount of fare as the other lucky passengers sitting on the seat? Should there be a cheaper fare if you bear standing, which would you choose to pay, a higher or lower fair? It may depend on how long the travel time is, how crowded the train/bus is and how much saving you may get.
Think of a similar choice on a short flight, say an hour or less. Which seat would you prefer if a vertical seat offers you 30% lower fare than an ordinary sitting seat with tight leg room? As more demand for lower fare increases for air traveling, vertical seat may be one of practical solutions for a bus with wings.
Enjoy reading and learning about a new idea for a lower air fare.
