aisle seat

Corridor-side accommodation

An aisle seat is a seat adjacent to an aisle rather than a window or positioned between other seats.

The term appears most often in the context of air travel, where passengers may request an aisle seat for easier access to the restroom or to stretch their legs, but it applies equally to theaters, trains, and buses.

I always book an aisle seat so I can get up without climbing over anyone.
