The futuristic concept for travel in 40 years' time was yesterday unveiled in London by Airbus - and it'll terrify those who already have a fear of flying. Window on the world: Gone are the small aircraft windows in the 'vitalising zone' which provides a panoramic view for passengers Flight of fancy? First, business and economy cabins are replaced by zones for relaxation in the front, work in the back, and a fully-stocked bar for socialising. Passengers will be able to see everything to the sides and in front of them. The aircraft's walls change according to light conditions.
