If you're one of those chatty passengers who enjoy subjecting fellow flyers to idle chit-chat, good news: Airbus has found a way to seat 80 more people in its A380, raising the double-decker jet's capacity to some 575 paying passengers.

Of course, Airbus isn't doing this to please the weirdly chatty flyers of the world, to say nothing of the suffering, silent majority. The European planemaker doesn't sell to passengers, after all, it sells to airlines. Airlines, it figures, that would be delighted to collect money from four score more people on each flight.

The capacity bump combines a variety of manufacturing modifications that Airbus calls, in a feat of marketing speak, "cabin enablers." Some of these techniques are classic moves (adding seats to rows), though Airbus announced other, more novel alterations, like reconfigured stairways, at this week's Aircraft Interiors Expo in Hamburg, Germany. Here's how the company crammed 80 additional seats into the ginormous jet:

Airbus moved the stairs at the front of the plane further down the fuselage, and combined the entrance that takes passengers up a level with one that takes crew members down to a private rest area. Airbus also nixed the space-hogging spiral staircase at the back of the plane for a squared-off setup that allows more storage.

Result: 34 seats (business, premium, and economy), plus room for two more food trolleys to feed the extra masses.

Airbus will eighty-six the flight crew's rest area behind the cockpit and combine it with the cabin crew's nap zone on the lower deck.

Result: Three premium economy seats.

Airbus is dusting off an idea it first floated in 2015: putting 11 seats in each economy row, instead of 10. The folks who pay extra for premium economy seats go from eight to nine per row.

Result: 23 economy seats, 11 premium economy.

The planemaker also removed storage areas in the sidewalls of the upper deck to makes room for lie-flat business seats.

Result: 10 business class seats.

"This new package for our A380 customers is a smart way to meet airline needs while improving the A380 economics with additional revenues and innovating in passenger comfort," Kiran Rao, Airbus' head of strategy and marketing, said in a press release.

New staircase design aside, these changes don't change make the plane bigger or add more overhead bin space or lavatories—which suggests everyone will be less comfortable. Then again, the flying pubic has proven again and again it will suffer virtually every indignity in exchange for a cheaper fare. Just look at the success of proudly frill-free airlines like Spirit and Ryanair.

But even if Airbus isn't making passenger-first changes, the planemaker may have misread the needs of its primary market: airlines.

"There's no demand for planes that can seat 500, or even 450," says aviation analyst Richard Aboulafia. Compounding the problem, Airbus' A350 and Boeing's 787 Dreamliner, both newer jets, offer better fuel efficiency than the A380, which entered service in 2007. (Airlines already seem reluctant to adopt even the original A380. In 2015, Airbus took just four orders for the plane. Two of those orders were canceled. Last year, net sales fell to zero.)

Plus, the Extra 80 scheme does little to draw the business and first-class customers who pay more money and generate more profit for airlines. "You're focused on the back of the plane, where you're not making any money anyway," Aboulafia says.

So, maybe airlines won't go for Airbus' sardine special, and you can settle for chatting with the small village of 500 people sharing your next flight.
