Flying in the future: What brings us the new Boeing forecast
In German air traffic there is a worrying development that could have a strong influence on both vacationers and frequent flyers. The plans of the aircraft manufacturer Boeing, which provides for a significant increase in passenger capacity in his aircraft over the next 20 years, raise questions about convenience and travel comfort.
The relevance of the space forecasts
The forecasts published by Boeing are alarming and show an increase in the number of seats per aircraft from currently 169 to almost 190 places within the next two decades. This means a compression of the passenger capacity, which will affect comfort in the aircraft. More and more holidaymakers will therefore have to adapt to the loss of legroom and personal space.
consequences for travelers
This development could have extensive effects on all passengers. Many passengers already have to struggle with the current confinement of the seats, and the forecasts suggest that it could become even narrower in the future. This is a worrying idea, especially for people who have grown up or have health problems. The possibility of paying for more space could be a solution, but not affordable for all travelers.
The creeping trend of commercialization
This situation is only part of a larger trend in the aviation industry that aims to maximize profit. Airlines could try to optimize the available space to increase the number of paying passengers. While the companies benefit from increasing income, travelers often fall by the wayside and have to expect significantly lower comfort. The latest changes could lead to more people considering alternative means of transport.
When does the changes come into force?
Although the forecast change in Boeing's seating capacities will only become a reality in the next 20 years, the industry is already warning of the inconvenience that are emerging through the increased demand and places in the new aircraft. This could lead to noticeable impairments, especially on European short -haul flights.
