Middle seat plane etiquette



Difficult. Aisle with the outer arm rest runs the risk of being bumped by food trollies, crew and numpties trying to wobble to the toilet. Middle runs the risk of having no arm rest at all. Window has an arm rest that (depending on the plane) near enough hits wall.

If everyone flew premium economy, they'd have loads of room!
 
Check in online through a frequent flier program: Aisle seat for anything over 2 hours, at the back against a bulkhead so you can recline without annoying anyone and near to bogs and galley for piss and drink (in that order, careful now).
 
Grab the ends of the arm rests so tight your knuckles turn white and when either of your flight neighbors look at you, grit your teeth and growl.

Or copy my 90s Inter City train double seat etiquette. Sit down, plonk 4 cans of double maxim, a packet of tabs and a family size bottle of MD 20/20 on the tray table and see who argues with you (Also, nip off for a joint in the bigs every hour)
