window-seat

View-side airplane spot

A window-seat is a seat positioned beside a window, either built into a wall as a recessed bench beneath a window or located next to a window in a vehicle.

In homes, window-seats are often cozy nooks with cushions, ideal for reading or gazing outside.

On planes and trains, the window-seat is the coveted spot for passengers who want to look out during the journey.

I always request a window-seat when I fly.
