Certain types of seating requests such as extra legroom and exit row seats will also most likely incur additional charges from the airline. Every effort will be made to fulfil these requests; however, seating is subject to availability and can be changed by the airline at any time.

Additional charges will depend on the airline, the seat you’re choosing and if you’re flying economy, premium economy, or business class. In most cases, the airline will allow you to select and pay for these seats online via their website. We can provide your airline booking reference so you can do this.

If the flights in your package are being booked on a group flight allocation, you will not be able to pre-book seats or check-in extra baggage online. We recommend you check-in at the airport as early as possible to request the seats you would like
