This is good. I first read about it yesterday and thought it was a dumb idea but then again these LCCs have a part of their business model to charge extra for everything compared to majors/legacies just doing the best for their customer without the premium and in most cases right now a heavily discounted ticket price.
that is a wise move..no one would actually pay to have a vacant set next to them,particularly when the flight are so empty...
I think they are predicting flights to return to 75% capacity a little sooner than reality however I will say that the Delta flight this morning that I was on. had three quarter of all rows full (excluding middle seats). People are traveling again. It’s only a matter of time before planes are full again (assuming social distancing is relaxed or less necessary).
