Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Airline reveals 'Skynest' bunk beds for economy class passengers
If you’re provided a personal cabin long enough to stretch your body in a sleep-friendly environment, can you take a sound two-cycle sleep in a given four hours? How much would you pay for this luxury on a flight as long as 17 hours on top of a regular economy-class fare? Since New Zealand is far away from any major travel destinations except for Australia, Air New Zealand has been trying to make their long flights as comfortable as they can for their passengers. Now, they are planning to offer an option for economy class passengers to rest in a sleeping pod for a prescheduled four-hour period during their flight. The “Skynest” concept features six full-length sleeping pods on their new Boeing 787 due in service in 2024. It looks like Japan’s capsule hotel pod. The pod will also offer meditative onscreen content or Zen-tertainment to help the passenger fall asleep. Again, how much would you pay for a four-hour sleep or body-stretching time on a long flight?
Enjoy reading the article and learning about Air New Zealand’s “Skynest” pot.
