Note that RCI did not remove any windows, but instead used tech to give a window to people in inside cabins where there are no windows. IMHO this should be the way to go for planes as well: Give everybody a window seat, with VR. And then also use that VR to show all those movies in a virtual cinema, show VR games etc.
My position is also to not remove any windows, but give the 90% of passengers without a window seat a window seat.
I'm not saying that your wrong or that's it's not interesting/cool, I'm just saying give it a few years and some profit forecast misses and then we'll talk.
In return, I'd be very happy if my window seat faced the window and my back a narrow corridor. I'll fetch my meals from the galley myself, if that's what it takes.
On airliners, at the very least, they could add good cameras with removable IR filters to all new planes and pipe real-time video (from gate to gate) to the entertainment system. Flying and being able to watch the Milky Way from above the clouds would be a memorable experience. Has anyone in management even consider what makes people learn to fly themselves in the first place? Hint: it's not the paycheck.
