MODERATORS
Just put less rows of seats and have them properly recline. Some people will want small rooms, but cheap sleeper seats help as well. People sleep in planes too.
I want to say that sleep is terrible because blood flow isn't as good as when lying down.
There is a reason pressure socks are sometimes recommended on very long flights even for people with no prior heart issues :)
The quality of sleep you get in a reclining seat will be well below that of a fully horizontal sleeper bunk. Unless it’s one of those first-class airline pod seats which reclines all the way, though those take up more space than compartments of sleeper bunks, and only exist because of aviation safety requirements which don’t apply on railways.
Yeah good point. In the transsiberia express they have 1st class, 2 person compartments with beds and also 4 person compartments with bunkbeds as 2nd class and 3rd class is an open wagon filled with 3 story bunkbeds.
