Perhaps they could grab a few L-1011's and put winglets on them to save fuel. I bet you could get 500 people on those.
Don't give him ideas lol , won't be long at this rate before getting a seat period will be an upgrade feature. Can pack a lot of people in those freighters if seats aren't an issue.
