    Individual seat selection isn't available for this flight - QF J International

    I'm coming up to T-80 in a few hours for a QF J international flight on a 787 as part of a One World Award itinerary. Previously I was able to select a (not great) seat and have a reminder set to pick a better one. When I try to choose my seat I get the message "Individual seat selection isn't...

    OWE seat selection on AA

    Been a few years since I last flew on AA metal. As a OWE I had the pick of most the plane. This is what I'm seeing on the seat map now when logged into QF. A flights are part of a QF booking. I'm sure previously I could grab MCE seats but even without them, this is pretty far back. Any ideas?

    Qantas T-80 no longer a thing?

    I'm a semi frequent flyer SYD-MEL and I'm fairly diligent in jumping into my booking 80 hours before my flight and selecting a front row where I can. I've noticed this last couple of weeks that seats are not being released at the T-80 mark. Am I just super unlucky and these seats are already...

    Bassinet seat selection

    Hi all, I've read some old posts on here and trying to avoid calling in if I can...is it correct that I won't be able to tell if there is in fact a bassinet on my flight by looking at the seating legend online? Looking at SYD-SFO in August (QF73&QF74) and first time travelling with bubs so...

    I just booked a flight with Eurowings, a German budget airline, and was pleasantly surprised to see that they actively offered you the option to add a guaranteed free neighbouring/middle seat at the time of booking. I selected this option and the price increased by just €3 (around $5). Great...

    Qatar J Redemption with Classic Rewards - No Seat Selection

    I've just redeemed QFF points for a QR redemption in J. It's confirmed but now I don't get any seat selection (even when using PNR on the QR Booking Manager portal).
