Classless Plane Concepts (UPDATE)

The Airbus Concept Plane is A Portal Into a High-Tech Oasis

The Airbus Concept Plane is an incredibly well-designed and futuristic plane concept being developed with an eye toward a 2050 completion date.

The Airbus Concept Plane is revolutionary not only in technology, but in spirit. It plans on doing away with the class system, leaving no Business Class, First Class or Economy Class, but instead they will have personalized areas with specific hot zones for relaxation (Vitalizing), interactivity and working spaces (Smart Tech).

Airbus also claims that their concept plane will make it easy for travelers to video and phone calls from their seats to anywhere in the world, alter the shape and size of their chair to enhance personal comfort, and utilize holographic pods to provide privacy from other travelers.

With the unspecified release date of 2050, one is hopeful that Airbus can meet every one of their possible plane plans. The Airbus Concept Plane would definitely improve and stylize the entire flying experience.
