American Airlines Wants You to Lie Back and Relax

American Airlines this spring will begin modifying is 767-300 planes to add lie-flat seats with personal audio and video systems in it's "next generation" business class, according to Peter J. Howe of the Boston Globe. The seats have adjustable headrests and footrests, a "memory" setting for returning to the perfect sleep position if you've had to put the seat up for a meal, plus two-part tray tables that deploy from the seat back and center console to create a large work surface. Meanwhile, United Airlines is committing a whopping $165 million on fancier seats in international first class and business class wide-body cabins over the next three years.
