So as much as I love flying non-Y (the truth is that domestically I generally fly Y) and I love looking at all the developments of Y+, J and F; I got to thinking as to why there have not been any major Y developments?
If I exclude NZ's Skycouch which they charge extra for, I can't think of any airline that has really improved Y seating.
Why hasn't any airline taken up seats such as -
'Stagger seat': The new middle seat that's bigger and better than window or aisle seats
OR
I understand that Y is about packing as many people in the steel can as possible to make money for the airlines, I would have thought that some of these options would allow for that as well as proved a better product and product differentiation.
These are my musings; feel free to discuss
