Reconciliation (aka confession for us older folks, and penance for you middle aged folks; by the way, the Code of Canon Lawstill uses the term confession, while the Catechism says "see "Penance and Reconciliation" and lists confession as one of its names) usually takes place in a confessional. The new Code of Canon Law stipulates, in Canon 964 (note that a "just cause" is nearly anything, and permits you to approach a priest or a bishop in an airport lobby, or even on a plane and ask them to hear your confession-which they must do unless seriously impeded):

from Code of Canon Law, translation prepared under the auspices of the Canon Law Society of America, Nihil obstat: + Anthony J. Bevilacqua, J.C.D.; Imprimatur: Rev. Msgr. John F. Donoghue, Canon Law Society of America, Washington D.C.

Can. 964 - § 1. The proper place to hear sacramental confessions is a church of an oratory. .

§ 2. The conference of bishops is to issue norms concerning the confessional, seeing to it that the confessionals with a fixed grille between penitent and confessor are always located in an open area so that the faithful who wish to make use of them may do so freely.

.

§ 3. Confession are not to be heard outside the confessional without a just cause
