The Future by Airbus - Concept plane cabin

Airbus invites the passengers of 2050 to discover its Concept Cabin - a whole new flying experience inspired by nature. Charles Champion, Airbus Executive Vice President Engineering, says: "Our research shows that passengers of 2050 will expect a seamless travel experience while also caring for the environment. The Airbus Concept Cabin is designed with that in mind, and shows that the journey can be as much a voyage of discovery as the destination. Whichever flight experience is chosen, the passenger of 2050 will step out of the Airbus Concept Cabin feeling revitalised and enriched."

By the 40's you had airplanes basically the same as today. Rows of seats on an aircraft with a cockpit at the front. All that has changed is speed of aircraft. Even the fastest commercial aircraft practically was the same. Two wings, rows of seats and cockpit at the front. Thankfully an aircraft like this will never happen

+Andres Caldas safer, cheaper and faster doesnt make money. Turning an aircraft into a theater, hotel, entertainment center, sports and leisure center does.

[@WollyhoodStudios]

+Miroslav Milosevic unfortunately that's not true. Think about it: you are an airline and you have the option to fit your new A380 with either a gym or more economy seats. While the gym is cooler and a good selling point, it's not making money. we are at a stage where aircraft design and innovation regarding the experience have taken a back seat position to give way to the increasing amount of people capable of buying that airline ticket. the key to staying competitive right now is to use less fuel per kilometer, put more people in a unit and make it all faster.

[@miroslavmilosevic1040]

fromcincinnati Etihad fitted some of their A380 with The Residence. It's a super-first class with an apartment with private toilets and dedicated flight attendants. Price to fly it is greater or equal than hiring a bizjet, but the demand is quite good, while the toll in overall seat capacity of the aircraft is minute. The newest from them is B789 with half the floor dedicated for business and first class, so it seats just around 230 pax. Business and first class passengers generate more revenue per space aboard and fuel consumed. And there are more and more high class fliers every day. And it all doesnt mean the economy will disappeareven then some no-frills carrirs of the future will fly people at very long distances in economy seats similar to today's

11.5 years on and honestly aviation is no closer to this, held back by rising manufacturing costs, rework, increased certification and technological stagnation. The MAX crisis and Boeing’s continual delays should’ve been an opportunity for Airbus to power ahead but we’ve yet to see anything revolutionary in commercial aerospace. Hopefully by the start of the 2030’s and in 11.5 years time I can comment on this again and hope we start making progress towards this concept.

I don't think I'd feel comfortable with the open "air" design where you are flying & can see everything around you. I think those should be special seats if passengers want that. Many people are nervous fliers & that would probably creep them out. The center area would have to go. There's no way passengers would not be injured if there's a turbulence patch they are going through. Too many injuries right there plus lawsuits, since people are lawsuit happy these days. Everything else though looks cool.

This is a very interesting design concept. While it will obviously require some breakthroughs in material sciences before these ideas can be implemented, it's certainly not beyond possibility based on research that is being undertaken today. I think part of the challenge facing Airbus and other operators of such aircraft in the future, will be convincing passengers that the new design is safe. It's so different to the traditional aluminum tube we're used to climbing inside of, that it may put some people off. Just think how scared some people are of walking over glass floors. Personally though I'd jump at the chance to fly in it! Well done Airbus for some blue sky thinking!

That's why engineering is awesome. It doesn't even matter if this will ever be real. But the ideas and concepts driving us forward are inspiring. There were and will always be evil people who use technology against us. It's the tech that changes. And as long as there is a majority of good people technology can help us to make the world better. technology is a tool, how we use it is up to us.

looks cool as long as it is safe for people to fly around the world.

[@canihave2bucks]

that awesome feeling you will probably live to see this

[@user-class.726]

Oh that means this plane is becoming built in 2100 or 2029?

[@limeeirfan6896]

This is basically the golden age of air travel but modernised

[@Neon-zj1uk]

That's really cool. I would pay good money to have a 20 hr flight to London on that thing.

[@BlueHelmetC17G3]

i love the airplane i love the tecnology

[@vegansavagezone8540]

I remember an old promotional video from the 1960's about what traveling in the future looks like. It seems as 2050 from 1968 and 2050 from 2011 show entirely different universes.

[@ramboromboni6920]

I love airbus planes, and if they made this that would make me so happy. I would really want to fly in it

[@bloomingpetals7230]

This plane is fantastic!!!

[@TuneTamasha]

I don't think this concept is too far-fetched, some of these things exist already today (although much simpler). I think we can do this by 2035 actually!

[@rodrigomartins777]

I'm commenting here on 2020, hey Airbus we are not that far from 2050, hurry up! :)

[@vkcintas]

this is a Epic idea. The future of the A380 will prob be like this

[@Rv12_pilot]

As long as I can be a pilot that will fly it, I’m in

[@Firehorsemoon]

Love this! Make it so number 1!

[@Matticitt]

Some of this is extremely impractical. But I dig the windows!

[@sussy001]

2:13 imagine if the seat is broken and u are spinning uncontrollably for the rest of the flight

[@Hilts931]

Looks fancy but it takes the joy out of flying. This could be anywhere.

[@hollysaga]

Aaaaa imagine traveling with your loved one for 10 hours seeing the clouds and starts and everybody is sleeping but you stare at Mother Nature kinda drunk in a comfy seats covered up looking at your loved one listing to cozzy music and then allaaahu akbaaaar baaam... Im a muslim chill out muslims

[@Palestine787]

Wow, If airbus is gonna do this, I wonder what Boeing will make ;)

[@unknownguy81rj]

Definitely possible! We are scratching the surface to break through new technological discoveries that will make any super computer today look like an Atari.... Give another century...

[@season13141]

creative and suitable for tourists

[@coney6110]

This plane is sooooooooooooo epic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@allmythoughtsarescreamsalt9147]

That. Is. AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@demoscottgaminglounge6315]

It’d be cool if they made prototype mode of the aircraft where they could fly at air show to show it off to the general to show them what it would look like

[@honeypiesweet03]

Love the style!!Really magnificent!
