Sleeping in 'economy'

For the first time, economy class passengers are going to have the option of stretching out for some sleep on actual beds during their flights.

Air New Zealand has announced its "Skynest" concept, which features six full-length sleeping pods, which will be among the offerings included on its new Boeing 787 Dreamliners, due to enter into service in 2024.

Each pod in the sleep zone will be located between the Premium Economy and Economy cabins and include a fullsize pillow, bedding, ear plugs, a reading light, USB port and a ventilation outlet. The pods are stacked like bunk beds, with two rows each containing three beds.
