Not an April Fools joke, this was reported in media I read too in the last few days, ie not on April 1, eg nau.ch/…/billig-airline-soll-bald-stehplatze-anbi…

It’s still bull. This has been resurfacing routinely for years.
The Daily Mail had to post a followup to their own bullshit, where the designers states plainly that these are prototypes and not being used anywhere any time soon.

Would inclusivity to people with disabilities/medical safety be included in those regulations?

would lifting the people by the sholder with a seatbelt solve the issue of standing?

Depends. Is forcing airlines to have real seats considered woke and DEI? ^/s^

You’re right, but for those of us in the US I wouldn’t count on them having to comply with any regulations, safety or otherwise for much longer. The deportation planes will almost certainly have no seats because the cruelty is (part of) the point.
