Where may prisoners not be seated on an aircraft?

Prisoners are typically not seated in aisle rows on an aircraft for several safety and security reasons. The aisle is a high-traffic area that allows for easy movement of cabin crew and other passengers, which can increase the risk of escape or disturbance. Additionally, being seated in an aisle row could allow a prisoner easier access to the cabin's exits, as well as potentially facilitate confrontations with crew members or other passengers.

On the other hand, prisoners may be placed near the cockpit for security reasons, as this allows for better monitoring by the flight crew. The front of the aircraft may also be acceptable for similar reasons. Over wing exit rows can sometimes be used as they do not grant immediate access to exits. Thus, the protocols established prioritize placing prisoners in areas that minimize risks to the flight's safety and security, making corridor seating a less favorable option.
