This is why plane windows never line up with your seat

Surprisingly, it has nothing to do with safety

Have you ever noticed when on an airplane, the windows don't seem to align with your seat? Passengers seem to be left stuck gazing out half a window.According to YouTube channel Today I Found Out, this flaw in the design has nothing to do with safety; it's all about saving space and squeezing as many seats as humanly possible onto the plane, meaning the rows don't match up.Because airlines have the control when it comes to how many seats they put into the cabin, it means they can do whatever they want to the layout. In 2010 RyanAir, a European budget airline, actually suggested getting rid of seats altogether to save space. Recently, it was ruled that the FAA will have to address the "Incredible Shrinking Airline Seat," as overcrowding has been deemed a safety concern. So maybe, we should just be grateful we still have somewhere to sit at all.
