I’m a flight expert & here’s why ‘windowless’ seats exist on planes – and how to avoid them
A FLIGHT expert has revealed why “windowless” seats exist on planes – and how to avoid missing out on a bird’s eye view.
Contrary to popular belief, not all passengers are granted the luxury of peering out onto the world below.
Passengers can be lumped with the dreaded windowless seat[/caption]
Instead of keeping tabs on the skies through the window, some unlucky travellers are instead lumped with the cabin wall.
It makes for a pretty boring flight, although it may be easier to rest your head on if you’re crammed in the corner.
But the majority of holidaymakers will want to swerve the “worst seat” on the aircraft.
Some Twitter users said it looks claustrophobic, while others complained passengers are missing out on natural light.
However, fear not – as travel site The Points Guy UK claim to have the secret to swerving the hot seat.
Senior director Nicky Kelvin also revealed why the bizarre layout is a common feature on planes.
He told the Daily Mail: “They’re often due to the manufacturer using that space to feed through certain avionics (aviation electronics) or essential components such as air-conditioning ducts.
“Frequently emergency exit window seats don’t include a window view as design dictates window placement on the emergency exit door, which often results in an obscured view.”
It can also be because aircraft are not always created for just one airline, meaning the interior cabin seats don’t line up with the windows.
So, how can you avoid getting a seat without a window?
Travellers can check out Seat Guru to ensure they have a comfortable resting spot for their flight.
Holidaymakers simply input their flight number and airline, before you can take a look at the seat layout for the plane taking them to their destination.
The undesirable seats, which likely have a downside, are shown in red and accompanied by an explanation of its pitfall.
It also details whether it has a window or not – allowing flyers to easily dodge the spurned seat.
Ryanair passengers previously urged people not to book seats 11A, 11F or 12F when flying with the company.
The position is notorious for not having a window to gaze out of, leading to a bunch of unhappy travellers.
Cheap Phones Shouldn’t Exist
Smartphones place a ridiculous strain on our wallets. And, somewhat ironically, getting rid of cheap phones could ease this strain. Manufacturers need to build high-quality smartphones that last a decade, replacing cheap new phones with a strong and consumer-friendly aftermarket.

Space Station Astronauts Build Objects that Couldn’t Exist on Earth
The Washington Post reports:
Backed by MIT’s Space Exploration Initiative, astronauts on board the International Space Station on Friday completed a roughly 45-day experiment using a small microwave-sized box that injects resin into silicone skins to build parts, such as nuts and bolts. Now, after the parts travel back to Earth this weekend, scientists will evaluate the test pieces to examine whether they were made successfully — a process that could take weeks.
If so, it paves the way for astronauts to build huge parts that would be nearly impossible on Earth thanks to gravity and could upgrade space construction.It lets you build and modify space stations “quicker, cheaper and with less complexity,” said Ariel Ekblaw, the founder of the Space Exploration Initiative. “It starts to unlock more opportunities for exploration.”
The silicone skin is like a balloon filled with resin instead of air, an MIT engineer/researcher told Popular Science — with the resin then cured and solidified by a flash of ultraviolet light. (After which astronauts can cut away the silicone skin.)
The best part? The skin and the resin are both readily available off-the-shelf products.
