Coach seating
This question relates to:French vocab and grammar list "Travel (plane related) vocabulary in French"
Asked 3 years ago
Hi Frank,
What you seat on will be, un siège, as the chair you sit on where rows of them have been placed for that purpose in a cinema, a plane or a bus.
But if you talk of a 50- seat coach you will use 'place' as this link illustrates -

Hope this helps!

For planes? ( In many places, coach refers to a tour bus, not economy class on planes).
Siège/s (d’avion) en classe économique, although anglicismes are rife in this terminology now !
