The Unbearable Heaviness Of Business Class

摘要

Airline seats have come a long way since British Airways unveiled the first lie-flat bunk in 1995. On Emirates' new A380 superjumbos, business class seats extend to form a flat bed up to 79 inches long, with a touchscreen controller to adapt the shape to individual bodies or provide massage. They also include in-seat power supplies for laptop computers, dual USB ports, large worktables, 1,200 channels of entertainment, and a built-in minibar at every seat. Special lighting even helps temper jet lag.
