Cloud Views and a Sleep-Friendly Lean: Michelle Yeoh Says Window Seats Are Underrated
Yeoh makes her case
Michelle Yeoh appeared on Kareem Rahma’s Subway Takes, where people share their hot takes on the New York subway. Her position: window seats are underrated. The story argues that a window offers a special view of the world below. Even Los Angeles, it says, can look impressive from 10,000 or 15,000 feet.
A place to rest
A window seat can also give passengers somewhere to lean while napping. The writer says a sweater can serve as a pillow against the plane, despite newer seats having bendy headrests. Because air travel takes up much of the day, the story suggests enjoying the view and then getting some sleep once the plane is above the clouds.
The aisle-seat counterpoint
Leaving a window seat to use the bathroom can be awkward. The article also suggests that getting up offers a chance to meet someone new. Despite making the case for Yeoh’s view, the writer says they personally prefer aisle seats and will not change their mind. They add that more window-seat fans could leave more aisle seats available.
