Here's why plane seats don't match up with windows

If you've flown before, you've probably noticed that plane windows never seem to line up with the seats.

Fortunately, the folks at the 'Today I Found Out' YouTube channel dug up the answer, which is actually incredibly simple.

Basically, the process of setting up a plane is this: The manufacturer builds planes with windows, and then the airlines themselves decide where to put seats.

There really isn't much more to it than that.

Airlines make decisions about how many seats and how much legroom they want to give us, and there isn't much discussion about it between the two parties.

So don't blame the builders, but if you hate getting a crick in your neck trying to look out the window, take it up with you airline!
