What do YOU get access to? The perks of each seat on a plane
- Aisle - Use the bathroom as often as you would like
- Middle - Access to both arm rests
- Window - Lean up against the plane and control the window shade
While sitting in the Georgia airport, Christopher broke down what it meant if you sat in each seat.
He said: 'I don't know who needs to hear this, but if you traveling by plane, your seat selection comes with certain gifts that you are entitled to. You are entitled to your gift and nobody else's. Here are the gifts.'
Then, the content creator revealed that those sitting in the aisle seat have the 'gift' getting to use the bathroom whenever they please.
'Sure, that cart is gonna hit your elbow whenever it comes by asking if you want coffee or tea, but you get to go to the bathroom whenever you want to. No bladder pain,' he added.
When it came to the middle seat, he noted that no one chooses it.
Christopher added: 'Your gift is you are going to be able to use both armrests, because we all know you're going to use them anyway.'
Lastly, the fitness influencer said that those sitting in the window seat get to lean against the plane to rest.
They also get to control the window shade, according to Christopher.

'And if you choose a window seat, your gift is that you get to lean against the window or you get to open the window and have sunlight. That is your gift. Because otherwise you have to step over people to go potty.
'But let me tell you something, if you are in the middle seat, you do not get to ask the window seat person to close their window because you don't want the light. That's not your gift. That's my gift. Your gift is that you get to have good arm circulation,' he said at the end of the clip.
Frequent flyers flooded the comments section and echoed the thoughts of the fitness fanatic.
One person said: 'As a Flight Attendant, these are INDEED the official seat gifts.'
Someone else wrote: 'They need play this after the safety instructions.'
Another user added: 'The airline should announce this during their announcements!'
'As a flight attendant, I approve this message,' another person said.

This isn't the first time people on the web have brought travel tips to the forefront of conversations.
Just a few weeks ago, a frequent flier sparked uproar after showing off a dangerous traveling hack that saw her wearing her seatbelt around her ankles in a bid to sit more 'comfortably' during her flight.

In the past, many passengers have also questioned whether you should switch seats while traveling if someone asks you to.
In December, a frequent flier issued a PSA to fellow travelers about seat swapping after he found himself in a nightmare experience that saw him forced to move five times when he begrudgingly gave up his spot to another passenger.
The unknown man took to Reddit to recount his seat swap story that 'permanently changed [his] mind on ever being nice and trading seats with someone.'
Another frequent flier previously revealed she refused to switch her window seat with an 'entitled' passenger who wanted to sit next to his wife.
The unnamed woman took to Reddit to share how she declined to move to a middle seat during an 11-hour flight from New York to Cairo, Egypt, so the man sitting next to her could sit beside his wife.
The anonymous traveler shared her story on the discussion forum as a way to rant about the man on the Entitled People subreddit, prompting others on the web to slam the man for asking someone else to switch to a lower-quality seat so he could be happy.
The denial comes months after one man sparked furious debate when he refused to give up his first-class seat for his boss, despite using his own credit card points to do so.
In the past, DailyMail.com's Jaci Stephen even offered up her view, and confessed that she 'absolutely refuses' to swap seats, no matter how angry the passenger requesting to switch may get.
