Our seating services


Seating on our aircraft

All our customers are assigned a seat at check-in on a first come first served basis. However we offer a number of different seating options to provide more comfort and certainty for our customers. Please note that pre-booked seating (and meal) options are normally available to book up to 3 months before the date of your flight, by contacting our call centre

Extra seats
For customers wanting seats either with extra legroom, at the front of the aircraft (this may be by the "bulkhead") or by an emergency exit, "Extra Seats" are a great choice. From only £15 per passenger per flight (availability and price varies by route), why not treat yourself by contacting our call centre and booking today?


Seats together

To take the worry out of check-in we recommend that you book your "Seats Together" from only £6 per passenger per flight (availability and price varies by route). "Seats Together" is very popular with family groups. This service is available online on many routes as part of the booking process, or via our call centre.


Select your seat

To make life even more convenient we also offer the opportunity to select your actual seat from £6 per passenger per flight (availability and price varies by route). Seats with extra legroom can also be reserved from £15 per passenger per flight. The cost of these services varies by route.

On many of our routes this can be done online at the time of booking or after your booking has been made. If you have already chosen our 'Seats Together' option but also wish to reserve your actual seat, you will need to call our call centre, and our call centre agents will advise you of the additional cost.
