A new class of airline seating... "The Skyrider"

Introducing "The Skyrider" - a new class of seating BELOW economy...

The new saddle seat is being offered to budget airlines by an Italian company called Avioninterios.

This 'seat' comes with 58cm (23in) of leg room compared to 76cm (30in) you get in a standard economy seat.

These can also only be used on flights lasting less than 3 hours...

3 HOURS?!?! I'd be begging to be let out and walk after 15 minutes!

Tray issues aside for the ... more ample people on the flight, i'm 6'4", and find that my legs are just a smidge longer than 30in which is annoying - especially when the woman in front with head phones on reclines her seat and forces my kneecaps to end up somewhere mid thigh... but i digress.

These seats seem to be dependant on your legs being at an angle – the lady in the flowery shirt can’t be that tall – so if I sat there with my longer legs… wouldn’t my seat have to be higher?

Hate hate hate!
