Imagine a row of Economy seats you can turn into a couch after take-off. Clever, right? Comfy, too. Skycouch seats are just like standard Economy seats, except each has an adjustable leg rest that can be raised or lowered individually. Lift the leg rests halfway up for a perfect recline, or all the way up to a 90-degree angle to create a lie-flat couch space.
