Fighting for the middle: A pandemic seating shift

11 May 2020 By Seth Miller 2 Comments

Sitting in the middle seat on the Molon Labe S1 Staggered Seat. Plenty of width to be had.

Forget the fight over who gets the arm rests; middle seats on planes are now generating real fights over if they should be occupied at all. And airlines are fueling the flames with misleading marketing messaging.
