The airlines have come up with a new answer to an old question: How many
passengers can be squeezed into economy class?A lot more, it turns out,
especially if an idea still in the early stage should catch on:
standing-room-only "seats."
Airbus has been quietly pitching the standing-room-only option to Asian
carriers, though none have agreed to it yet. Passengers in the standing section
would be propped against a padded backboard, held in place with a harness,
according to experts who have seen a proposal.

Just. Go. To. Hell.

The problems with this plan are 1. you have to strap infants down too, and 2. When you crash into the sea, you end up getting waterboarded.
It's only a matter of time before they hand you a couple of low-grade rum runners and stuff you in a high school gym locker.
