A vehicle seat has a side support 10a that can be moved to stow in/against an armrest 30a,30b, and deployed to extend along a side of and outwardly from a seat back 100. Armrest 30a,30b can have a door or hatch 31a,31b, and an enlarged lower portion 32a,32b to house the side support 10a when stowed. The side support 10a can pivot parallel to a width direction of the seat, possibly about an axis parallel or the same as a pivot axis of the armrest 30a,30b. The side support 10a can be cushioned. The vehicle may be for mass transit e.g. aircraft.
