Why is there no seat B on airplanes?

RE: Why No B On Planes Seat Plan Depends on the system that the carrier uses, but B is pretty common. A lot of systems insist that the same type of seat always has the same letter eg. A is always window, C is always aisle. B is usually a middle seat on the left hand side of the aircraft, facing forward.

If you prefer to sit on the aisle, the best aisle seats are those in the centre section of the plane. If the plane has a 3-4-3 configuration, sitting on the aisle of the centre section means there will be fewer passengers needing to move past you to access to the toilet or to stretch their legs.
