Airbus A380 - Wake on a Plane: Lufthansa may add bunk beds to economy class
Economy fliers may finally have our chance to snooze on an Airbus. Lufthansa, the German airline, recently ran an online questionnaire asking passengers if they'd welcome a chance to stretch out in a horizontal bunk on the Airbus A380. "The first results have been very positive," said a spokeswoman.
Instead of being lined up in horizontal seats, passengers would be stacked vertically from floor to ceiling. Each side of the plane would have three bunks with two more in the middle aisle. The side aisles line up sleepers diagonally in a herringbone pattern. British newspapers immediately seized on this, calling it "kipper class."
