that includes a lie flat bed

That entirely depends on how tall you are. Walking through those seats on my way to have my knees crammed into the seat in front of me in coach I realized that even in first class I'm too big for an airplane.

Maybe there's a market for a big & tall airline.

The old ones have seats with about 72in of lie flatness which is 6ft. But unless you sleep like a Victorian ghost, most people bend their knees or legs somehow. My friend that is 6ft4in has no issues and he's tall and wide.

Most of the new ones are 76in to 82in. 6ft 10in is pretty generous. And if you need longer, there are first class seats which are full beds and you'd have no issue.

I fly in a pod every few weeks for 12hr+ flights and it's very comfortable. I am hoping blimp travel makes a come back as I'd love to take the scenic way back with a full suite one day.

I've got a california king bed and frequently wake up with my feet dangling over one end and my arms over the other. I really, really doubt I'd fit on an 82 inch bed that has no space around it. And that doesn't get into the constant light and noise and people on a plane which make it even harder for me to sleep, even if I could get comfortable.

Though many people have made it clear to me that airplanes are not supposed to be comfortable or nice, just something to endure to get to where you're going.
