Villafranca in an era where Airline Seats seem to be shrinking flight by flig Airline Seats seem to be shrinking flight by flight, some airlines are actually spending big bucks to make you more comfortable. The average distance between seats for a short domestic flight is 31 inches, just under inree feet. Some Economy Airlines have a distance as low as 28 inches. Kris van cleave went searching for that perfect seat. Lc welcome. Reporter spirit, an airline known for rockbottom ptyes, wanted to start with a clean slate a brandnew empty airplane with its future lined up neatly in rows inside its detroit hanger, the work begins. It will take up to 10 spirit employees more than 12 hours to get all 182 seats loaded into le plane, slotted into the right spot, and locked into place. I think this is an amazing eeat for spirit. Reporter Lania Rittenhouse spent more than a year finetuning the new cabin with particular emphasis on the seats. They have memory foam, a new curved back so passengers sit le lher back in the seat, opening up more usable leg room, while increasing the amount of prerecline. The rows are still just 28 inches apart, but the airline bys the curved design and moving the seatback pocket to the top has freed up two inches of usable space, and theyve added a real tray table. Stople are going to see this story and go, this is all just am excuse to shrink the space otd cram more people on planes. That is not what were doing. The number of seats are still at 182. What did change was the livable space in the seat. L reporter we flew with Alaska Airlines frequent fliers over californias bay area for a sneak peek of alaskas new cabins. The only rose of rows that got lloser together on this plane were in first class. The new seats, created by bmw designworks, are intended to feel a bit like a luxury car. The memory foam is basically to give the guest a more comfortable feeling. Reporter jetblue has spent iears working on its new cabin, the leisure carrier also went with the curvedback seat with memory phone and their signature inseat tv. The distance between rows stays be same, but because the seats themselves take up less space, jetblue can add up to 12 more seats. T its incredibly important that we get this right, because orrcraft interiors do fly for a long time, so we put a lot of thought into designing what we believe is the perfect seat. Reporter united Just Launched a new 50seat regional jet with what it believes will be the bestinclass interior with business, premium economy, and a snack bar perhaps perfect for a short flight. In truth, the perfect seat probably depends on who you fly. For spirit, these new seats will be in all of their new aircraft, and they have up to 150 on order. It will take a couple of years to get the rest of the fleet caught up and these new seats installed. Kris van cleave, cbs news, detroit.
