True, which plays a large part in my preference for seats with direct aisle access.

My company recently adopted a policy that discourages working in airplanes or other public areas where proprietary information could be potentially be exposed, so this really is down time for me. A couple cocktails with dinner, a movie or reading followed by a nap is my preferred method of enjoying a long flight.
