What is a "gangway"?
A gangway is a narrow corridor or passage that provides access between different seating areas in a theater, airplane, or similar space. It allows people to move easily from one part of the seating area to another, reach their seats, or exit the area. The gangway helps to keep the flow of movement smooth and prevents people from having to walk over seats or disturb others.
