The primary reason is for passenger comfort and convenience. But there are three other reasons.
First, the windows allow emergency personnel to see inside the passenger compartment in the event of an emergency. This allows them to see where passengers are, whether there's fire or smoke inside the cabin, and so on.
Second, the windows allow the passengers and cabin crew to see outside the aircraft during an emergency. This allows them to see which evacuation paths are safe and which exits are blocked by fire.
Third, the windows allow passengers to remain oriented to outside conditions. Studies have shown that if the windows are closed (or presumably if you didn't have them at all), in an emergency evacuation, each passenger trying to leave the aircraft pauses as they reorient themselves to outside lighting conditions. Having windows open reminds the passengers that they are in a plane and that it is light, or dark, outside. This permits them to exit the plane much more quickly because they are moving from one familiar environment to another.
What else can I help you with?
Why does the airplane need windows?
There are times when the pilots need to look outside. It is still safer to do this with windows instead of using cameras that can fail.
Why do airplane windows need to be open during takeoff and landing?
Airplane windows need to be open during takeoff and landing to allow passengers to see outside and help maintain orientation in case of an emergency evacuation.
Why do are airplane windows are smaller than bus windows?
Aircraft windows need to resist severe air pressure changes and pressure differential.
What are the windows of airplane called?
The correct term for an airplane window is a porthole, the same as for a window on the side of a ship.
Are airplane windows bulletproof?
Yes
How many no of windows in an airplane?

Why are airplane windows curved?
Why are airplane windows curved? A: This Q is about windows that are NOT flat. Usually curved windows are designed to fit the shape of the airplane so as make the airplane more aerodynamic and not be boxy. Why are airplane windows rounded on the corners? A: One of the first British jets began to crash for no reason. This airplane, the Comet, had large square windows. The investigation discovered that the airplane cracked open at the corners of the windows. This was about the time that engineers began to understand the phenomna of Fatigue. Their tests showed that the corners of the windows resulted in higher stresses and it fatigued the metal. They redeisgned the windows to be rounded and it reduced the stresses and no more planes crashed. Sharp corners in holes of any surface that is carrying a load will increase the stresses. If the corner is changed to a curved edge, then the stresses are lowered. Think of stress as a flow of forces and when it comes to a sharp corner, the flow can't go around the corner.
Why is it necessary for airplane windows to be open during takeoff?
Airplane windows need to be open during takeoff to allow passengers to see outside and help maintain a sense of orientation and balance. This can reduce feelings of motion sickness and anxiety during the ascent. Additionally, having windows open can provide natural light and ventilation in the cabin.
What material is used to windows of airplane?
Reinforced glass.
What does an airplane have that is made out of glass?
The windshield, the windows? Lol
Why do windows have to be up for takeoff on an airplane?
Windows have to be up for takeoff on an airplane to ensure visibility and communication between passengers and crew, as well as for safety reasons in case of emergencies.
Can you close airplane windows?
You can't open them to begin with. Most airline windows have a shade that can be pulled down.
