German translation:nicht nutzbare/verkaufbare/verfügbare Plätze
Explanation:
Ich würde das hier allgemeiner halten, denn es geht nicht nur um bauliche Sichtbehinderungen, sondern auch z. B. um durch Stadionkameras belegte Plätze.

Danke für die rege Beteiligung.
Da nicht viel Platz in der Tabelle war, habe ichmich für "blockierte Plätze" entschieden.

seat kills
sichtbehinderte Plätze


Explanation:

Seat Kill. Blocked sight lines cause seat kill, which means that the venue operator cannot sell the seat or may have to sell it at a much reduced price.

agree  David Moore (X): IMHO, you should use one of these options. After all, camera and microphone locations can quite easily kill seats too.

agree  Cilian O'Tuama: (Aber sind die Kameras etc. nicht schon durch 'Media' abgedeckt?) Ist trotzdem wahrscheinlich eine sicherere Lösung. //Aber die anderen werden bestimmt nicht extra aufgeführt - egal.

  -> Im Ausgangstext wird die Medientribüne erwähnt. Daneben gibt's aber wohl im Stadion verteilt weitere Kameras/Mikrofone.
