The seat in the middle of the one-way route is 34

The seats are given as:

$First= 0$ --- the first seat behind the seat number 95

$Last= 66$ --- my seat

The seat number half-way would be:

$Half = \frac{Last - First}{2} + 1$

This gives

$Half = \frac{66- 0}{2} + 1$

Subtract 0 from 66

$Half = \frac{66}{2} + 1$

Divide 66 by 2

$Half = 33 + 1$

Add 33 and 1

$Half = 34$

Hence, the seat in the middle of the one-way route is 34
