Well my last few flights I have sat in the aisle, mainly becuase I have had a lot of CRJ flights were I can strech my legs in the aisle since there is no first class. In short has anyone else switch from Window to Aisle or Aisle to Window after years of sitting the the same seat.
Yes - sort of. When I was regularly flying ERJ-145s out of MCI and EWR on CO, I would go for seat 2A or 3A - which as you know are both aisle and window seats.
I digress. I always preferred aisle seats as I could get up to rest room/stretch etc without disturbing other pax. I then flew CO flights MCI-IAH-EZE (also did the Buenos Aires Metro to Iguazu too) and return. Had never crossed the Tropic of Cancer, Equator , Tropic Of Capricorn before and I wanted to see out of the window going across the Amazon jungle etc. OK -I know they are night flights you can not see much, but I wanted to. Since that day, I always try and get window seats. SCENERY. Did not regret one bit when last summer I did SEA-WRG-KTN-JNU on AS metal using DL Sky Pesos
