Delta Air Lines and United Airlines are facing class-action lawsuits filed on August 19, 2025, in federal courts in Brooklyn (Delta) and San Francisco (United), accused of misleading passengers by selling “window” seats that lack actual windows. Plaintiffs allege that aircraft such as Boeing 737s and Airbus A321s contain seats in placements blocked by ducts or wiring, yet these seats were not disclosed as windowless during booking—unlike disclosures made by competitors like Alaska and American Airlines. Over one million customers per airline are represented, with claims totaling millions in damages and requests for injunctive relief and better transparency.
