Thank you for the INFO!!!
I only fly every few years or so and never had heard of SeatGuru before booking my upcoming trip. I decided to go for broke and pay extra for Delta Economy Comfort and picked one of only 6 good seats on the 777 I’ll be taking to Israel (bulkhead, right behind business class, window seat). I cringed at the extra charge, but buying my own ticket vs the tour company making arrangements saved me $850 and I’m going fro my birthday so I decided to treat myself.
love this channel but it looks like this video is from the 90’s…update the footage! still great tips nonetheless!
I was able to snag the Crew Rest seat on a JFK-SFO flight on American’s 767 and was able to lie flat. I also look 24 hours before the flight to get a better seat. I always go online 24 hours before and chose a better seat if its available.
This is a very outdated video; British Airways only open seat selection 24 Hours before departure. Otherwise, you can buy a seat of your choice. Obviously within your paid Class.
A very informative video and a good tip on seatguru.
Thanks for posting.
My dad on Southwest Airlines yesterday was able to sit in economy seat 1A!
Very good info. SeatGuru is great for selecting seats. Even if you don’t fly often, become a loyalty member. Certain airlines don’t loose status of miles after a year. You may loose the miles for that year, but your status over time only gets better. Also, always as a loyalty member, buy economy seat tickets, then at that 24 hour pre-check in, or in the first couple of hours, check-in, that is when you get the best prices for upgrades. I have saved thousands of dollars using this method, and in the last year, I was not able to upgrade to 1st Class once, all the other times I upgraded very cheap to First Class.
