1. If you're travelling with another person, book both the window and the aisle seat on the same row. This increases the probability that the middle seat remains empty. 
   
   The main reason being that single travellers would try to avoid a middle seat and so you increase the chances of you and your friend having the row to yourselves. 
   
   If someone does end up taking the middle seat, they are generally happy to switch with you for either the window or the aisle seat which means you and your buddy can still stick together :)
    
2. If you're planning on sleeping on the plane, you should consider picking a window seat that is on the same side that you sleep on your bed. Therefore, if you usually sleep on your right, it would probably be more comfortable if the window were also on your right so that you can rest your head on it.
    
3. I recently found out the following;

• If you need to exit the plane fast, pick a seat at the front of the plane.
  This is especially useful if your plane is delayed and you have a second connecting flight or an important event that you need to rush off too. 
   
• If you have motion sickness or can't handle turbulence, it is reported that the middle of the plane is the most stabil in the event of turbulence. Although you will still feel the jerking and dropping of the plane, you can minimise your exposure to it.
   
• The back of the plane is better if you need easy access to the flight attendants or restroom or if you need to stretch your legs often. 

That's all for now.

Happy travels!
