airplane toilets

Get out your change! Coming sooner than you may think, at least one airline (Ryan Air based in Ireland) is in talks to retrofit their 737's with pay toilets. In addition, they are reducing the number of toilets from 3 to 1 so they can add 6 more coach seats. The airline claims these retrofits will only be used on flights less than 2 hours long.
ANA has already been actively reminding passengers in gate area to use the toilet before boarding (yes, they have a toilet agent talking to passengers waiting in boarding area). ANA's school of thought is less weight will mean better fuel efficiency for flight.
With self service kiosks, reduction of services, fees for every thing..... passengers are now just self loading freight.
