Domestic Exit Row seats - cost?

[FlyboyAl]

I just went to check my seating on my LAX-SYD-ADL flights on Friday and when I got to the SYD-ADL I am able to select an Exit row seat.
Maybe this is not new, but I tried it and I got it, then it said print the receipt and bring it with me to the airport!
Only problem was that it did not tell me what the cost was.
I know international is $160, but is there a cost for SG FF for domestic exit row seats?

no charge domestic for status fliers

No charge for domestic at all; irrespective of status.

Can non-status fliers allocate exit rows?

Can non-status fliers allocate exit rows?

yes, If allowed access to the actual rows in the first place.

Other than that, often at T-80 ...

I think that was my question - do non-status pax have access to the rows?

Yes, if the "mask" fits.

Once they have access and can select an exit row seat, there is no charge.

Wow - that does surprise me.

That would explain why there is always someone sitting next to me in the exit rows and that my "shadow" has not been working lately...

Brilliant. Have just updated all my local bookings to exit rows.
Thanks all.

On a B737, only CL/WP/SG can select an exit before T-80, as both exit rows are within those specific seating zones.

This applies for most B767 aircraft as well, as the exits are also within the seating zones.

The only aircraft that PS or NB can select an exit before T-80, are a specific configuration B767 where there is an exit further back in row 43 (there are only 7 of these configuration anyway), or A330 where there is an exit in row 44.

Once T-80 hits, the seating is opened up and anyone can then select the exits, if they are not already allocated (which is usually unlikely, unless there are pax who had exits allocated and then have jumped forward to row 4/23).
