Fly standing: why not?
Despite proposals, regulators are cool to the idea
In the near future, would a newer “cattle class” emerge for travellers on budget airlines, where the flight passengers would be standing up (or sort of sit-stand) or sitting in a perch seat while flying? Not yet, though.

In fact, this May, an IndiGo flight from Mumbai to Varanasi had to abort its takeoff because flight attendants noticed someone standing in the shadows at the back of the aircraft. And it reignites this two-decade-old discussion.

It’s not as though no one has ever stood throughout an airline flight. Six passengers stood the whole five-hour flight from Antalya, Turkey, to Ekaterinburg, Russia, on the now-defunct Tatarstan Airlines in 2010 due to a plane change that left them without their reserved seats. They were offered seats on the following flight seven hours later. Maybe they made the decision to make history by standing up.

Crucially, an incident that occurred around the same time as IndiGo’s Mumbai-Varanasi flight event serves as a reminder of the significance of aviation safety. A horrible incident involving a passenger’s death and numerous others suffering significant injuries occurred on a Singapore Airlines flight that was struck by strong turbulence. However, if wearing a seat belt while flying is the most feasible way to ensure safety, why not create a belt that permits standing?
