They unfold into [beds, recliners and more upright chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eclipse-collection-1) with sturdy supports and the option of setting up [privacy hoods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eclipse-capsule). Users can sit, relax and even sleep on these [modular and adaptable mattresses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/conqueror-inflatable). Perhaps the RESMO could be inexpensively rented, or provided for passengers by airlines when schedules and aircraft are experiencing major delays.
