Delta's pod-like airline seats for the rest of us
Looking oddly like space alien headquarters or deep-freeze pods for spacemen, these new Delta seats look like they will give flyers a bit of privacy, comfort and a better shot at some sleep during those monotonous overnight flights.
They look like a really interesting design, trying to use some of the unused space defined by the airplane's contours to give a bit more room.
Unfortunately, we'll have to wait until 2010 to give them a try.
And no more $12,900 fares (see below for that story).
