What is the etiquette for snuggling up in that case? ;-) This is all great for all the reasons everyone has mentioned but I’m struck by the fact that in very many years of long-haul flight taking I’ve pretty much never had 3 seats to myself and at best had to share 3 seats with a stranger.

I agree, great to be stepping away from the screen too, I've been working on an 'out of box' user research project where customer behaviour revealed some tricky real world design challenges to the packaging designers.

Great to see UX, CX (or whatever people choose to call it) - moving out of the computer screen and into other areas - we need more of this. Method Acting eh? Sounds familiar... http://www.zefamedia.com/human-nature/bring-your-personas-to-life/ That promo video they did is awful and a shame that IDEO got most of the credit for the work – obviously some kiwi ingenuity and good common sense in there as well.

Great post. A couple of the facts were wrong though - IDEO was only involved at the initial stages. Most of the work you've described in this post was done by Optimal Usability. The video makes it look like it was all IDEO though :-( Check out http://www.stuff.co.nz/sunday-star-times/business/3351638/Method-acting-helps-cuddle-class-take-off Hope all is well! Trent Hi Nick.

Second, why has it taken so long? Perhaps this answers the question posed in your Oct 26 post Air New Zealand listens to customers, Or do they?

Their's probably involves packing crates or straight jackets. I wonder is Ryan air is working on a similar project. Their’s probably involves packing crates or straight jackets.
