Hi

That would add realism to the flights. By now on short and middle range aircaft we have to decide to have a fix seating number of business and economy class seats, but at least in europe, this doesn't represent the real life.

normaly airlines chan "switch" the amount of business class seats by keeping free the middle seats and moving the divider "courtain" accordingly. That would be so nice to have...

What would be nice too, is to have an A320 with 186 economy seats availabe e.g. easyjet has it.

...and what I forgot to mention, is that to pay to change a configuration on an narrow body aircraft who operates in Europe, dosn't make very sense :oops:

It has been mentioned many times that for economy seats we always assume a seat pitch of not less than 30", evil airlines like easy jet will use 'basic' economy seats closer together than that but to keep things consistent we don't.

The economics and modeling of passenger behavior of using more kinds of seat times would require a total reimagining of how we calculate things, which I don't see us doing any time soon.
