Due to the low passenger load, each passenger was allocated a business class seat that could convert into a bed, although passengers were encouraged to spend time in the coach cabin in order to balance the plane. “I feel better than I usually do,” Nick Mole, one of the passengers in the research study, told Business Insider about 17 hours into the flight. Mr. Mole often flies in business class, but said that he feels better rested after an ultra-long-haul direct flight, rather than one with a connection, including Qantas’ service to New York via Los Angeles. “I’m not sure I’d want to do 20 hours in the back of the plane, though,” he added.

Exactly. Fine in a premium cabin where you can have space and be ‘horizontal’. Crammed down the back, especially in a middle seat - a form of torture.

Please do a test flight with a number of people crammed into a section of economy and see what the ‘feedback’ is like. How ‘better rested’ they are.
