Airline crew for over 2 decades here:
Etiquette is that middle seat gets the armrests.
Window seat has one armrest and the window.
Aisle seat has outside arm rest and aisle access.
I've flown a bit, some longer international flights. That was something I just did intuitively. I think it comes down to being a person who thinks of others vs inconsiderate people
I always assumed that was just common sense. It works out perfectly for everyone involved.
@@CrystalLynn1988 Common sense isn't that common among airline passengers.
-Puts a single bag in overhead locker, then close the locker.
-boards first, sits in aisle seat, fastens seat belt.
Exactly. Common sense. Should be policy on all airlines. Announced by cabin personnel prior to takeoff.
Trevor stole this joke skit from Jim Jefferies
Trevor is so intelligent, smart, and witty. What a class-act.
👍🏾
I love how Trevor plans for everything. Remember this one time he was talking about how takes time to notice where the draft is coming from in a hotel room, so he doesn't get cold during the night and lose sleep over it.
I agree. I wish I could marry him.
Trevor for Complete and Total World Domination! (one middle seat at a time)
And good lookin too! 😄
Trevor is such a good storyteller that by the end Stephen was shook.
He did seem awkward didn't he? And Trevor wouldn't back down from his point and do much agreeing w Stephen. It was interesting to watch. And I always love when the guest starts their interview w a wave or nod or out right mention to the band.
I think it was more that Stephen was steamrolled for a moment, and then went with it out of comedic respect... but sure as hell came back with a zinger at the end - stole his show right back!! Haha... good on both of them :)
He killed the vybe in the end. Like how can he think that 🤣
'Cause he ain't no such thing as a halfway crook!
I like Trevor's confidence, in being who he is.
He is an African. It is common here.
the Dignity (con - fidelis, etymology) is an honor to noah’s mother and father; And such Humble Presence probably does make a really cool friend and neighbor
I just wish he was a better person
@@margholtz More precisely, South African. Let's not lump all Africans together - it's a huge continent.
Sounds like a serious case of PTSD if you ask me... He's not agoraphobic, is he?
Trevor Noah’s ability to make the most mundane thing so interesting and funny is so great
I would watch a special called "The Middle Seat" by Trevor.
Seemed straight out of a stand up set. I hope he used that show or two, it’s pretty damn funny.
I prefer jim Jefferies version of the joke. Trevor stole this skit from him
@@BaMenace it’s definitely similar but I’d hardly call it theft. I think people fighting over the armrest is a pretty common scenario. And they’re stories are different. Both are funny though.
@@EveryCrazyDay yeah but Trevor has a history and tendency to steal other people's material. Russell Peters jokes for example... leopards don't change their spots
@@BaMenace Yeah, and you're making yourself a history of spamming this theory all over the place. Just stop, no one cares. Comedy is the art of making us look at old stuff in new ways. Trevor does it well.
Trevor can make a story out of anything - just love him!
The young man is a gift, and I never realized those dimples before. I am reading his memoir now, it's a blockbuster and recommend it to everyone!!! It is so well done and impressive that it's been adapted for young adult reading lists.
That book is in my top 5
Airlines and hotels that overbook need to be publicly called out on the practice.
I know, it is not related to a broken seat, but this segment reminded me.
The Airline Industry became a part owner of Congress. It used to be travelers got free hotels, food and tickets when airlines overbooked and screwed people over. That changed as fast as Vegas did when corporations took over.
I was once booked on an economy class (USA: coach?) flight from Gothenburg to London. It was an early morning flight on Ascension Day = public holiday in Sweden/business day in England. I was asked if I'd give up my seat, presumably for a full-fare paying business traveller. I was in no hurry to get to London and so I asked what was in it for me. I was refunded most of the fare I'd paid and then flown business class to Brussels where I had to wait an hour or two in the luxurious business lounge before being flown to England. It was great.
I flew to Jamaica on US Airways. On the way back they overbooked every plane flying out. Everyone that volunteered to give up their seat got a free overnight stay at the Hilton, all-inclusive. I met people that had been sticking around for weeks. Get up, go to the airport, volunteer to stick around again, go back to the hotel and hit the beach. I promised myself that I would never fly any other airline to Jamaica.
Frankly, I'd be concerned with any airline whose seats were broken. The fact that they hadn't fixed them yet, says a lot.
Don't be upset. They may have needed to take some screws out of the seat just temporarily to replace the ones that fell out of the engine.
How many millions did United lose because of this negative attention. Serves them right.
@@rais1953 Sir, it's not just the seats. One of our engines is also out. And our pilot has narcolepsy. The toilets don't flush. The flight attendant has herpes.
@@ericminch ...and the autopilot is stuck on 'descend'.
@@ericminch Don't worry. If Lynn is right you won't need the toilet.
This guy can make anything interesting.
Yup, steven is the best 👌
@@richardfelsch6886 he meant Trevor
Very true .
Everyone is talking about between the scenes. Yeah, I do miss that. But I love Trevor's interviews. He listens, contemplates, and asks great questions. That is honestly my favorite thing about Trevor. Kinda like the cherry on top of a sunday. Everything else is good, but that cherry is the best part of the treat.
Of course, not everyone feels that way, and that is fine. That is just my opinion. I like Trevor over all, but I really like his interviews.
Couldn't agree more! He is so authentic and curious
I could watch these 2 together every night!
You and me both : top class wit 👌👌👌👌
Me too!
I remember Trevor’s BBC interview a few years ago…
And how he corrected that reporter.
Like many reporters she had an agenda , going out of of her way to incriminate anyone that does not conform to the new social norms being pushed onto society…
We see more of this when they are trying to bring in a new ultra political norm , which will determine our future freedoms.
I remember Trevor Noah’s response
“These are differences that can be used to separate or to celebrate our differences ”
Go Trevor !
Trevor and Stephen.. This is awesome!
Correct!
I love Trevor. He seems so kind and he's hilarious.
Stephen, “I see a sequel to The Queen’s Gambit.”
That gave me a nice giggle as I lay here not sleeping even though I should be at 3 am
Yep, me too…lol
I can't sleep because it's too hot in my room
Go to bed! Watch more Trevor content when you wake up!
You only live once, and if these small thing's keep you happy; just enjoy the moment.
@@ladydiamondprisca Why is it so hot?
We're all waiting for "The Queen's Armrest," coming this holiday season on CBS...
HAHAHAH!
Trevor Noah is my one and only celebrity crush. What a gem.
So funny at the end Steven looking for a book or something to hold up for the camera. Nope, it was just a short & brilliant little quip from Trevor Noah.
Trevor Noah is so funny, intelligent, and expressive.
Yes!
Now that's a joke. You should be a comedian.
No one tells stories like this guy does. 🔥🔥🔥
When airline travel becomes Sun Tzu's ART OF WAR!!!
This man is speaking straight up facts
"You don't know airplane etiquette. Window gets an armrest and a wall. Middle gets two armrests. Aisle gets an armrest and little bit of extra leg. We're not fuckin' animals, we live in a society." Jim Jefferies
came here for this comment haha Jim Jeffries is the best
This needs a gofundme page for buying ad space in airports.
So funny. Describe more of what you see. Comedy gold. If this is what passes for comedy in this society, then the society belongs in the trash.
If only people applied it.
Only Trevor can make a middle seat story this funny!
It was too short of an interaction... this left me wanting more of them talking about current issues...
So at ease with an audience. Also a intelligent and funny guy.
My two favorite hosts together on one show. Perfect
No one understands the aeroplane struggle and the superiority of the window seat like Trevor. Total Legend 💚
"Yo, United. Let a guy know." And with those dimples. 🙂
Love Trevor's armrest chess techniques! I'm prepared to call either one The Noah Gambit.
"The Noha Gambit" I think you just named his next book
He stole this joke from jim jefferies like when he stole russels skit
@@samilahhoahoe5125 stop posting your pornography. You will be reported
@@sunnydaze2359 I keep reporting "her." "She" does this exact same prostitution ad on several YT providers i watch, under various pseudonyms. In this show thread alone, I've reported this 8 times or so. They make it look like it disappears, but if you click out and back, it's still there. I'm not sure if any of them ever get removed.
@@BaMenace That's the third time I've seen you post this blatant lie in the comment section. Are you that jobless?
I love Trevor!!! He stole the show. Great class
*He's BRILLIANT!!!*
I totally understand having to prepare for the middle seat.
Trevor can have my armrest any day, and my ear. I would talk to him the whole trip, great guy!
Trevor is seriously wise beyond his age…😂
These 2 men & their incredibly talented crews got me through quarantine. Great interview & thank you for everything!! ✌🏼💚🌍
A real treat seeing Trevor and Stephen together!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Trevor is voicing to the world very similar thought patterns I have regarding seating on planes.
I used to be able to 'not get up'... but then I hit my mid 40's... It all changes, Trevor... it all changes.
A nights sleep with "not get up" disappears, too.
hell, i dont even eat pizza or garlic anymore...😑
@@id10t98 Same here... it was a sad, sad day when my Doctor said "Let's talk about your diet..." and I felt an invisible 'OLD' stamp hit my forehead.
No its doesn't. Its called conditioning of the mind and body.
I love when comedians interview other comedians. I also love these two men so much
Love watching comics who hold each other up like this perfectly in terms of comedic thunder, grace and momentum. Wonderful Trevor story!
Colbert is intimidated by Trevor’s confidence and charisma.
I'm surprised he's not laughing but Trevor carries on
Who isn’t? Trevor’s energy is everything
It's a beautiful thing when a little boy from Johannesburg's biggest problem is wrapping his head around his airplane seating assignment. First world problems can be a beautiful thing.
But to be fair, not unless you have not been to Johannesburg or South Africa before, South Africa literally has everything that they have in the first world (America) , from infrastructure to technology to Big airports, bridges and Mega Malls. . After all, that's where Elon Musk and Charlize Theron are from also. It's just that it also has other issues. But I doubt Trevor is overwhelmed by what he sees over there cause he's seen it already in his own country.
@@africanandproud6792 I was referring to the childhood photos and memories that he shared..they looked bleak.
@@LadyPenelope Oops, sorry. I completely misunderstood you there. It s just that there are people on the internet, particularly from the West, who think Africans live in the jungle. You are clearly not one of them.
@@africanandproud6792 Oh, that's okay..you're not wrong about the ignorance in the world and the willingness to share baseless/factless opinions on things/places they know nothing about.
@@LadyPenelope Thank you for understanding 😃
I love him even more, after hearing his thorough breakdown of "which seat am I in, on an airplane".
YO, SAME!? 😀 (But not for airplane seats, just things... in life 😂).
I feel the same way. I'm very uncomfortable with uncertainty.
These two kept me sane during quarantine.
As a middle child, you summed up my entire role in the family. We all must be mentally prepared.
Stephen, this was a great show tonight. You nailed it. Trevor owned you, though, in the dialogue. You weren’t staying up with his humor and vibe. Trevor has the low to high, no-have to have, disrespected to respected and worldly life experience that allows him to expand his range of comedy forever. I watch both shows and watch Colbert more because of my Search Engine algo, but really, love both so much! Have Trevor on more! Trevor, I’ll give you our shared armrest any day - and will probably bother you with questions the whole flight because I can’t get enough of your stories.
Felt exactly the same.
Same, felt a bit of tension from the get go on the previous clip of Colbert calling him out on the audience thing, and then it just felt confrontational, like one competing late night show host with their origins from the Daily Show competing with the other trying to portray a sense of more success and intelligence.
Very disappointed with Stephen. Especially his studio audience addiction. Sadly he comes across as a disconnected disinterested megalomaniac. He's been on a pedestal for over a decade for me... Particularly during lockdown. But the moment he got back to the studio... Lost the connect. He's a genius no doubt.
um wtf completely disagree, this is so off base. love trevor but he was uptight during this interview and stephen was chill and rolling with the jokes. trevor just kept repeating the same thing and barely laughed or smiled except at the end, which i assume is just from having a difficult time in his life right now, happens to all of us. so weird though how people see such different things
Yall got me through this pandemic!! Trevor and Stephen!!
You guys make a great team. Loved every second of the brief interview. Brilliance comes in small bursts (packages, many times)
Love the way Trevor is halarious in everything he says
They are both GREAT! Thank you for lightening my day!
Totally with you Trevor! Well said.
You are breaking my heart. The Daily Show shaped my life. Please remember that you were merely holding the torch. You have been the savior who we needed through the pandemic, but don’t take this from the people who need TH DAILY SHOW to smile every day. Love yo u Trevor
If you need this race baiting traitor to smile you have a very sad life.
@@dragomilosevic4823 you have clearly never seen him perform. I hope you feel better soon.
But.....the show is still on.
@@dragomilosevic4823 ...says the only "race-baiting" person in this thread. If blended people bother you, please, feel free to return to Russia, or wherever you're from. You've clearly never learned from the perspective of others, who didn't ask to be treated differently, and badly. #ByeFelicia
Everyone I know loves Trevor's Afro! :-)
Love Trevor's story
Should be like “Mr Noah, I love your show! Here is a free upgrade to Business Class”.
Stephen Colbert was in over his head, Trevor Noah is a legend.
Awesome! Watching two I adore. Greetings from Cuernavaca, Mexico.
I relate so harddd to it! I love how he makes minute n relatable observations a part of his comedy!😍
Trevor! Fun to see you here too! 🎉 Appreciate you both so much! 💞🌸☺️🙏🏼🤣
I love Trevor:) I can just picture his grandmother's reaction to this..lol
I love Trevor's mother and grandmother. I've learned some very valuable lessons from them.
The way he said Joburg 😎 2:00
Love these guys
I love Trevor so much. He's the sweetest
Yes, Trevor! I totally feel you. By chance, I'm having this lesson now. I too resent it when I'm not informed for my consent to any change. But I'm starting to realise this is what they mean by ego. It's not the brash kind but it's still related...like the song goes, "you can't always get what you want". I'm trying to be stoic about it now.
I'm stupidly straight, but I can still man-crush hard on my boy Noah. Sure, he's cute, but he's devilishly smart & emotionally intelligent & what about that isn't attractive to a fairly healthy person?
Friend crushes are a thing. As a middle aged gay man, I frequently develop them towards guys I could/would never actually try to date if I was single.
I appreciate it when straight men can own up to this! He is the best kind of crush because it's the whole package 😁
When they give me their middle seat, I'm like 'but didn't you see the size of me hips?' .... Then I sashay onto the plane and let them hips do the fighting!😊
Oh, yeah! Best fight!
I'm 6'4" and 200lb, so I *could* take what I want. I prefer courtesy and consideration, though. Why don't you?
That’s selfish.
How is she being inconsiderate or selfish? She was put in the middle; she didn't ask for everyone, including herself, to be made uncomfortable. The sensible thing to do would be to put larger people next to smaller ones, including other people's children. Two issues down with one solution.
@@injunsun if you know you won’t fit in a middle seat comfortably without impacting others comfort the considerate thing is to forwarn the airline and possibly book 2 seats.
The inconsiderate thing is to barge on the plane and demand an aisle seat from someone who may have booked that for a very good reason. I once had to travel with an UTI. It was purgatory even with an aisle seat, that I had precooked.
I've had this happen. My seat wasn't available. They had empty seats, but they were upgraded seats, so they didn't want to give one to me. They made me wait until the last second, telling me I might be bumped to another plane, instead of just giving me the available empty seat. After everyone else was boarded, they finally let me have one of the empty seats. I swear, airlines are not motivated to retain customers, because they know they don't really have any competition.
As a South African, hearing Stephan Colbert calls Johannesburg, "Joburg," rattled me, and now I am awake in 2:05am.
I noted that too! Rare for a non South African to say Jo’burg
I wasn't expecting a stand up. Perfect plug. Well done.
Thanks Trevor. I also don't get up from my window seat. Even after the lots of drinks while watching movies
What brand of adult diapers do you wear?
@@toad4ever103 controlled bladder
No kidding. 6-7 hours from Europe is my limit. I did that once, took time to get back to my friend's place in NY. The color of my urine told me it was not a good idea . Never again.
It really depends on how much you drink-and that includes lots of water for hydration. Why subject yourself to discomfort for the comfort of the other passengers?
@@paulorganisation1 I'm impressed. I'm lucky to get to my local grocery store and back.
He makes the most simplest thing in life more of a learning moment of the mundane. That’s a gift right there?
What a wonderful brilliant man. Love you Trevor Noah ❤️❤️❤️
Love Trevor and love Stephen,that was a win win!
I absolutely love his genuinity
Is one of my very favored books. Trevor is a treasure for this country. ❣️❣️❣️
Two of my favorite talk shows host ever!
The fact that he’s not in first class is refreshing to hear
My two absolutely favorite late night hosts! I am in Heaven!!! ❤️🥰❤️
LOVE Trevor!!!!
Two of the best!💯
Always love Trevor!
This was a great interview it went by way too fast. Having Stephen Colbert interview Trevor was great.
Trevor is awesome
Love hearing Colbert call it Jo''burg!
He's just straightforward bit also respectful.
Love Trevor
Facts he nailed it
Trevor is so funny in such a simplistic way.
Happy 2022
Just came back from a trip and I agree about the miiddle seat on the plane. I played the arm rest game. Tx Trevor for your brilliant humor and love you and your choice of guests Steven.
Wow, thanks. Treva is the best!
Two True Champions of Freedom and Unity !
He is the best 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I feel like Trevor got wrapped up into saving the armrests for himself and didn’t want to sit up all the way 😆
😄😄... I think Trevor just described my plane experience at the middle seat section. I CAN TOTALLY RELATE...
Love seeing the both together.I don't miss Steven.He is my to bed every night.I could listen to them a little longer.Very entertaining.
Trevor's mom and grandmother did a great job in raising a terrific person ✌💙 from Montana
