Now it's time for "Good Idea, Bad Idea"

Good Idea: Selling budget airline tickets in this bad economy so people can still afford to travel.

Bad Idea: Selling "Standing ONLY" Airline tickets.


Here's the article that appeared on one my favorite sits today- Shanghaiist.com - about an airline that is actually considering selling "standing only" tickets. Can you imagine trying to go to the bathroom?!!

My favorite quote from the article is:
In the new model, passengers would be sitting on something resembling a bar stool with seat belts tied around the waist. The president of Spring Airlines likened the experience to "catching a bus, with no seat, no luggage consignment, no food, no water."



Seriously China? Seriously?
