Window for sure. I’m just going to knock out for the flight, I need the wall to lean on. When I don’t have that, I have to sleep with my hand propped up on my arm, and once I fall asleep my arm will slip and I’ll hit the person next to me, and that’s always awkward to have to apologize for, haha. Plus, I’m one of those people who realizes that once the plane lands, I’ve still got like a half an hour before I’m getting off, getting up immediately to try to get off before people in rows ahead of you is a jabroni move, as is not recognizing that those jabronis are on every flight and knowing not to stand up and get caught up with them. Might as well catch a few more Zs until the lowest common denominator de-boards, haha. You can remain undisturbed in that window seat.

the window.
It works out the best if I can fit my shoulder in the window.
I have a large frame, not fat, just big, so I don't have to sit all hunched in if the window lines up with my shoulder.
If I have an isle seat, everyone bumps me when they walk past me.

The window seat even though I get terrified looking out of the window when the airplane is taking off. (It was worst when I took the flight for the first time and ended up grabbing to the guy's hand who was sitting next to me. 😬)... BUT I like looking at the view once I calm down. It gives me something to do when I don't want to watch the movie.

Aisle! I get that window has a good view but the view gets boring in a few minutes lol. With the aisle seat you can get up whenever you want without awkwardly giving each person a lap dance before finally getting out xD. Also if it's not busy you can spread your legs somewhat into the aisle for extra comfort!

Phoenix-gb · Answer

Would depend on the length of the flight, if it's short and I'm unlikely to need to get up, window is fine. But at 6'3", a long haul flight is going to require either leg room, or ease of getting up to stretch out.

ChrisMaster69 · Answer

Depends on the flight, if in Europe, say UK to Germany, I really don’t care as it’s a short flight,

Long haul I tend to do window, as it’s easier getting in and you don’t have someone in a pod next to you.

Window: so I can see what's out there but aisle so I can get to the bathroom if I need to without bothering anybody; my nose runs a lot and I'd have to get up to spit frequently. if there's no one else in that row, I'll take the window.

99% of the time when I fly I am either flying my own private aircraft OR I am in Business Class if going overseas. Most of the time I am on American 777s. On that rare occurrence I am in a smaller feeder airliner I prefer to sit in an exit row.

DizzyDesii · Answer

Window seat so i can rest my head. The windows are made silly. Theyre in between each seat so you can't look straight out. You have to lean forward or back

backdoorman · Answer

Aisle for sure. At 6'3" and 210 there is no way to get comfortable unless my shoulders can "spill out" into the aisle a little. In a window seat my shoulders are squished between the window and the person next to me.

I'm not going to pay $$ to fly commercial airlines. Would rather drive and stay in hotel (s). When I did fly, I would do window usually

shroomerite · Answer

I prefer the aisle seat because I can get up to use the bathroom hassle free and the aisle seat is front row to the snack/beverage cart strolls

andreasderjuengere · Answer

If I'm given a choice, I'd prefer the back seat.

TacosRAwesome · Answer

I end up in middle because if always with someone who wants window and I hate people leaning over me to see stuff.

Nagahime · Answer

Never been on a plane, but I'd do like I do on the school bus and sit next to the window.

yucychan · Answer

Aisle. I take long flights, and I need to stretch, so it would be good to get off the seat easily without having to push past people.
