A Losing Argument

United Airlines and Delta are facing class action lawsuits from passengers who paid extra for window seats and then placed in seats with blank walls. United's argument is "that 'window seat' refers only to a seat's position, not a guaranteed outside view." In other words, they are arguing that "window" doesn't mean "window" in the common and ordinary meaning of the word, but has a double-secret, insider, technical meaning that no ordinary passenger would know. Good luck with that argument.
