I almost spit my drink out while watching the video. This has so much PR/Marketing written all over it it is hard to fathom anyone outside of those departments have even seen those "concepts". Almost like some intern fresh out of the European equivalent of RISD[0] sat down with some crayons and dreamt up something derived from Star Trek and Star Wars simultaneously. My favorite line:

"Gone are the regulated class divisions of First, Business and Economy, replaced by personalised zones that offer flexible, tailored levels of relaxation, interactivity and working spaces."

That, my friends, is probably the only thing that will happen by 2050. And the odds on that are slim to none.
