    This perturbed plane passenger sat front and center.

    Jess Smith, who runs @jesssmith_36 on TikTok, unveiled her horrific flight experience when flying to Greece with friends.

    In the 6-second clip, which has over 12.4 million views, Jess is seen sitting upright facing all the flight passengers.

    “When you book row 1 as a treat, but it turns into you facing the entire plane??” she captioned the viral clip.

    The group of friends thought sitting in the front of the plane would elevate their flight experience, but this ultimately backfired.

    Jess appears uncomfortable in her unique seat, which faces an audience for hours.

    Many TikTokers could feel the unsettling feeling of the seats through their phone screens.

    “It’s like you’re in timeout the whole flight,” laughed one person.

    “I’d actually prefer to ride on the wing,” commented a jokester.

    “I could never survive this,” confessed a watcher. “I would cry tbh.”

    “If you can get a flight like this, you can get through anything in life,” a TikTok user suggested.

    Meanwhile, some travelers claim that the middle seat and window seats without a window are the worst seats on the plane.

    As previously reported by The Post, a passenger unleashed his frustrations for being seated in a windowless seat.

    “I’ve never been on a flight where the window seat has no window!” griped one victim on Reddit about the claustrophobic arrangement. “If my job wasn’t paying for this, I’d be super salty about paying for a non-existent view.”

    However, like Jess, both passengers were unaware of the unconventional seat until they boarded the flight.

    To avoid this mishap, the best thing to do is to use SeatGuru , a digital tool that allows passengers to see the seating configuration on their upcoming flight.

    The site allows passengers to input the airline and flight number, which generates a map of the seats with undesirable ones noted in red.
