There are three row seats that are often found on airplanes. The seat at the center is unpopular because there is a feeling of pressure.


"Side-Slip Seat" which make this central seat more comfortable has adopted a design that the seat height of the seat in the center seat is slightly lowered.


Common 3 row seats are all the same width as 18 inches (about 46 centimeters).


On the other hand, "Side-Slip Seat" is 21 inches (about 53 centimeters) wide and widens the feeling.


And the biggest advantage of "Side-Slip Seat" is that the seat on the aisle side can be slid and stacked in the center seat by having a step on the seating surface of both sides and the center seat. This makes it possible to widen the width of the aisle when passengers get on and off.
