Snuggle up

My flatmate Lisa had great delight the other night, in telling me that an airline is now making 'snuggle' seats for the often forgotten & always overlooked Economy Class. And as much as I trust this precious girl, I just had to check it out for myself. And look what I found...

The Skycouch is a row of three seats that can fold out to create a flat space all the way to the next seat back in front, "providing a place for the kids to play, or the holy grail of economy travel - a flat surface for adults to relax and sleep," Air New Zealand said.

Two adults traveling together can buy the third seat, allowing the Skycouch, at approximately half price, the airline said, adding that it would announces full airfare details when tickets go on sale in late April 2011.

So keep checking in with Air New Zealand to keep up to date. I know I will. Now, to find a snuggle buddy...

Many thanks, Air New Zealand, from the bottom of my Economy Heart! x
