    Why?

    May 20th, 2008
    Buy a seat

    Now you can purchase a used Lufthansa seat of your very own!
    My question: Why? What in the world would you do with it? It’s not like it’s the most comfortable seating in the house.

    Here are some thoughts though.

    • Perhaps going forward, while booking with Lufthansa, if you own one you can get a discount on your fare.
    • Persons of “large” size, if asked to purchase an additional seat, can use your own.
    • Facing said seat about a foot away from the closest wall of your home and sitting in it for 8+ hours is a good way to practice for a coast-to-coast or over-seas flight. For an extra authentic experience invite a rowdy neighborhood child to kick you in the back and scream as often as possible. Extra points if you get one that purposefully doesn’t recline.
    • For a way to make some extra cash, take last example, refer to it as a “ride” and charge an admission fee. (Actually, no joke, there are “flights” now that do just this – they never leave the ground, but let you hang out in an airplane seat for a while)

    I’m now running out of material, but please… feel free to add your own.
