The Side Slip Seat makes the middle row the best seat on the plane.

The latest innovative concept invented by the Denver based firm Molon Labe Designs is called the Side-Slip seat, and one of the upsides of the design is that passengers “stuck” in the middle row get seats that are two inches wider, 20 inches, versus 18 inches of width apiece for window and aisle seats.

The middle seat has long been the scourge of air travelers. While there aren’t really any good seats on a plane, the middle is the choice of last resort. The window seat comes with a view, and the aisle provides a quick escape route, while the middle seat offers neither and feels even more cramped and crowded because of the presence of passengers on either side.

The middle seats in the Side-Slip design also come with their own dedicated armrests, so there is no need to battle it out with neighboring travelers for elbow space. The design allows the aisle seat to “slip” sideways over the middle seat, making the aisle considerably larger with room enough for a wheelchair or two people side by side. With more space in the aisle, boarding and disembarking times could be cut up to 33 percent. Thanks to this revolutionary new design, the middle seat could one day turn into the most coveted spot on the flight.
