[QUOTE=vikingivesterled;10774209]It works in first class so why not. And row separating curtains have been allowed for a long time as a movable class separation.
A company has already made a sample: https://simpleflying.com/middle-seat-privacy-screens/
However they could be larger and on the armrest instead of taking a whole seat, to allow full occupancy.

Sure, that would work. So the standard fare across the Atlantic becomes what? £6000? The market for single Business (let alone 1st.) has been tried, tested and found not to work. See Silverjet et al. If we ended up configured like that, the market will have returned to the 1950's rather than the 70's. .Only the rich can travel the globe. Well it will make the Green lobby very happy indeed.
Anyway, its all conjecture from insufficient data just now. But I'm very glad that I got to retire last year and can watch this from the sidelines and my sympathies to all the crews.
