The safest place to sit on an airplane while the coronavirus outbreak continues to expand may be the window seat, according to new research from Emory University. Respiratory illnesses, like coronavirus, generally spread through a person coming into contact with an infected persons’ saliva or mucus. Those seated in window seats were least likely to move from their seats. Only 43 percent of those seated in the window got up, as opposed to 80 percent of those in the aisle. The study also said the research model does not account for the transmission of aerosols, which is possibly how coronavirus can be spread.
