JumboJET Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 When you are on a plane, do you prefer the aisle, window or middle seat? I prefer the window seat as I like looking out of the window. How about you? Jumbo. Link to comment
Guest milne_afc Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 Window seat for me as I tend to travel with the weak bladdered. Link to comment
Ten Caat Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 Window seat for me. Actually bizarre as I have vertigo....only explanation I can think of is that the plane is moving. But i cant bear looking out of the window up a block of flats for example. From about the 3rd storey up i have to back away. Link to comment
Reed or deed Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 I like clinging to the under carriage personally. Link to comment

Ten Caat Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 3 minutes ago, Sooper-hanz said: Vertigo isn’t a fear of heights. Vertigo is called height vertigo when the sensation of vertigo is triggered by heights. Height vertigo is caused by a conflict between vision, vestibular and somatosensory senses. This occurs when vestibular and somatosensory systems sense a body movement that is not detected by the eyes. Link to comment

( cause that’s wot you said )😜 Nah, the fear of heights itself is acrophobia. But I'm ok on planes as I said, just cant look over sheer drops standing still when I do get all the symptoms of vertigo...dizziness, sweaty and my body goes rigid. Genuinely terrified.

Betty Swallicks Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 Window or aisle. Middle is a no go zone unless its an hour or under flight. Last on the plane also. Priority boarding..... to sit for an extra 45mins. Gypes! Link to comment
Quagmire Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 Middle aisle, preferably in a row of 4 with the 2 seats at the other end booked up. Link to comment

Don't much enjoy it when it involves a lot of flying over a body of water, to be fair. Link to comment
Quagmire Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 Got to have high confidence in your bladder to be selecting the window seat in any long haul flight. Link to comment
Dal Riata Don Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 When I was a kid, window seat. As an adult: aisle seat; easier to get to the toilet or just walk around. Link to comment

Don't much enjoy it when it involves a lot of flying over a body of water, to be fair. ....Especially if you are flying over the area of sea from the Bay of Bengal to the northern coast of Australia. Plenty of ravenous saltwater crocodiles readily prepared for any plane crashing into the sea over in that region. Safe enough over the North Sea though min, unless your plane crashes and you encounter a starving conger eel or a hungry basking shark down below. Link to comment

Get pished get on the plane last, seat belt on, sleep and then wake up mid air when the drinks trolley is going passed. Only ever utilised priority boarding if I have the kids. Link to comment

Edwin Starr Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 Doesn't bother me where I sit . Going to Spain to finalise the sale of my town house 27th March didn't even book a seat, going by myself anyway . Link to comment

Whatever body of water you're flying over is pretty irrelevant. Aisle for me, every time. Nando Parrado would have something to say about that. Link to comment
