Seat assignment

Reviewed September 2026

The specific seat attached to your booking — distinct from the cabin and the fare, and governed by its own rules. In premium cabins most carriers assign free at booking, though a few charge for the best rows on discounted buckets. The professional detail: seat maps go stale around equipment changes, and the difference between a good and bad seat in the same cabin (bassinet rows, galley proximity, the odd rear-facing seat) is knowledge, not luck. We pre-assign deliberately on every booking.
