Sankoku:
〔乗り物・劇場などの〕すわる席。
「後部━〔=乗用車の後ろの席〕・━指定券・━表」
(↔立ち席)

JEs have just "seat"

.
  Comments:
That's way too lengthy, and not really a gloss. 
It's more of a contextual explanation of the gloss "seat".

Could have either a short addendum like this, or give examples to clarify like sankoku (〔乗り物・劇場などの〕).
The context in which it is read should do the rest.
