Nah, into our airplane seats! See, if we're all in claw machine seats, they don't need aisles so we can get crammed in even closer together. No more wasting time with overhead bins: when you're in the terminal, you put your carry-on in the bin under your seat, close the lid, and sit down. Then the claw machine scans your ticket, picks you and your seat up and deposits you in the right slot - no more wasting the airline's time holding up the line while someone tries to steal your seat or misreads a row number or fumbles with the overhead bins.
Once you land, they empty the plane by running a full-row claw machine, and then the entire plane is an empty shell, making it easy to clean. The empty seats themselves can be cleaned in the terminals between flights - hell, they can probably set up some kind of conveyor belt autoclean system.
I wonder how much it would cost to bribe the FAA and NTSB to sign off on this concept? .....
