It's that time of the year again.

@Gina for long flights, I personally prefer a window seat on the left side (like the one you highlighted). I have trouble sleeping on planes, and that's the closest you can get to laying down against something. I rarely move during flights so I don't mind the window seat.

For shorter flights it's the other way around: aisle seat in the front, as I can't wait to get out of there 😁

@Gina it all comes down to personal preference but maybe center aisle?

@Gina

I was on 100+ planes/year going to hackathons for Intel (humble brag) a while back, so only upgrades, which meant always always always:

Exit Row.

Bonus, ask questions when they give you the speech. They have no idea how to answer.

lol ok, well then go for middle seat to maximize the suffering 😂

@Gina Some good tips here: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Travel_Guide#Choose_Your_Seats

Although it looks like SeatGuru has *just* shut down. seatmaps.com might be an alternative.

@Gina
"Proceed without selection" and check in with a randomized seat 4h before the flight???

@nobody middle seat final boss 💯

@Gina @junior now you've made me want to stop reading and go play Rimworld. This image reminds me too much of my shoebox shaped gravship :)

@Gina
Sooner or later the flight will anyway become full. 🤷🏻‍♂️
