Will “cuddle chairs” be coming to your favorite airline soon?

Perhaps. Boeing calls it the “transport vehicle upright sleep support system,” and you can see how it works in the Patent Yogi‘s video above.

The patent for the new comfort sleep system appears to solve the common problem of trying to sleep hunched over to the side or straight up. The system involves a backpack that extends from under the seat, which passengers can attach to the back of their seat, then rest their face and chest on.

What do you think — does the cuddle chair look comfortable?
