Aisle. Working in Asia for many years racked up over 2 million miles. Window is OK for short hauls but that's about it.
Which is better: window or aisle?

I'm not so much a fan of the view, so all a window seat is to me is less room for however long I'm stuck on the plane. Aisle seat all the way.
This is the interior of my private jet. What is this "aisle" of which you speak?
Aisle. I pee a lot.
With these feet, the aisle is the only way.
When you're a tall guy, the options are reduced to "Not enough room" or "Even less room than the other one".
For those who complain about people climbing over you -- you're supposed to get up to let them out!

I prefer the window seat, but then again I'm a pilot so you probably prefer if I can see where I'm supposed to fly the plane.
You, sir, must be the absolute steel-bladdered GOD of the Vancouver-Manila overnighter!

I pee a lot, too. That's why I go for the window seat. PM me for instructions on how to open it.
And nota been: you may want to avoid sitting behind me.

Now THAT I couldn't do! My experiences have been 3-3.5 hour domestic flights.

Doc:
Now..that's a gas!
Aisle all the way...
First few times, the window is "cool" since you get to see outside. Then you realize that staring at skies are boring after a few minutes and you wish just for that extra little bit of freedom that the aisle seat grants.
And I do not need to lean on anything to sleep

Aisle - more elbow room, at least for one arm.
WINDOW. I'm a sleeper. Many times I fall asleep after take off and wake up while landing.
Plus I'm kind of a bigger guy so my shoulders extend past the edges of the seat. So I constantly get bumped by people if I'm in the aisle seat. Hate that.

Without a doubt the aisle. I have dancer legs that need to stretch, I love easy access to the trollies, and if I need to pee I WILL pee. I have flown too much for *tap tap* "excuse me. excuse me.". Plus I like having easy access to my overhead bag/s.
I don't know. It has been 25 years since I flew anywhere.
I'm going to be on a plane in 11 days to visit friends and I'm rather afraid of being stuck for 5+ hours with nothing to do.

@ouch -We really need custom titles back- there are a few possibilities here
No kidding, Sherlock.
Window. The terminal window that is. My wife wanted to go to Europe, but I told her that I have no intention of ever getting on another plane. I did offer to wave to her from the terminal window if she wanted to go.

Brain:
Never flying again huh...can I ask why.
I take 2 to 3 trips a month on planes. I always shoot for an aisle seat in the exit row. I like the extra leg room and the fact that the seat in front can't recline into my space.
As I enter the plane I like my seat to be on the left side. Being left handed, it makes it easier for me to have my elbow in the aisle for eating and writing.
