A new Airbus concept plane resembled an alien spacecraft more than a modern aircraft. Some of the stranger features that you may experience in 2050 are: seats auto morph around your body, have built in acupuncture, and actually harvest the heat from your body as energy. To enter the plane, you’ll have to let it scan your hand for identification. It then guides you to your seat and deals with your luggage.

There is supposedly a concept video, but either work is blocking it or the video is down.

When I saw some pictures of it in a danish newspaper, the cockpit, (or front passenger area) reminded me of the bridge from Ravager (KoTOR II, Darth Nihlious flagship)

Panorama and seats sound neat, but I doubt there'll be THAT much space for all classes.. unless this plane is going to be marketed as "all first class" (with all first class prices of course)
