Only if they don't replace them with even larger digital "windows." There's also been work towards electronic windows in aircraft.

Yeah but it'd be cooler if the sides were completely digital "windows".
What should these be called? Dindows? Digidows? Digdows?
I live in the arctic and I was thinking of building a home without windows but with same idea. It allows you to remove convective heat loss from windows almost entirely. Not to mention it's much cheaper than shipping up glass windows.

I could see airlines charging more for "thrill" planes that have 360 immersion "windows" wrapped all around you.
Wonder Woman eat your heart out! (Her flying in that invisible jet in the cartoons always freaked me out when I was a kid)

Or special flights where the windows make it seem like you're flying into space and landing on Mars.
