Now many people like to travel. In recent years, with the development of transportation, air tickets have become less expensive. Some discounted air tickets are even cheaper than high-speed rail, but long-distance flight by air is a very painful thing. How can we choose comfortable seats?
1. Early booking
The earlier you book tickets, the more choices you have, the more likely you are to get the ideal seat.
The ticket is valid for one year. It is common to book 45 days in advance. The price can get a relatively low discount and the flight is relatively fixed. If 45 days is longer for some friends, it is also appropriate to buy 7-15 working days in advance (except holidays).
2. Book tickets directly through the airline
You can book tickets directly through the airline booking official website or telephone, and you can choose your seat. If you book tickets through some third-party online travel websites, you may not even have the opportunity to choose a seat.
3. Seat recommendation, this must have
It is recommended that the seatguru online aircraft seat self-service selection platform, in addition to the website, has a mobile client application, which can be used on both IOS and Android platforms. Just the airline and flight number, real-time seat information in front of you. Green - the best choice - the most comfortable seats. Yellow indicates that these seats have some disadvantages. Red is best not to choose.
Click the seat, click the seat, and the corresponding seat information such as seat number will pop up. As shown in the figure below, the seat is close to the exit, there is no power supply, and there is a TV above.
4. There are strategies for seat selection
When two people fly together, this method can be used for reference. Window and aisle seats are usually tight. When three seats in a row are empty, you choose a window seat and an aisle seat first. When seats are full, you can enjoy the whole row of seats with good luck. If someone sits in the middle seat, he won't mind changing with you. Why not change the middle seat to a window or aisle seat?
5. Actively strive for
Heyan Yuese actively (and early) asked the gate ticket inspector to see if he could change to the first row of economy class or the row facing the emergency exit. These two rows generally have more leg space. You may enjoy more comfortable seats without paying for an upgrade.
6. Spend more money to make the journey more comfortable
If you can't upgrade seats for free, it may be worth considering spending money to buy more legroom. The premium cabin is very expensive, but it is not fixed. Five hour flight, you can get extra leg space for an extra $50, which is absolutely worth it. If you spend a few hundred dollars on a two-hour flight, you'll have to think about it again.
7. Dress appropriately, be modest and polite
Usually well-dressed and polite people are more likely to get a free upgrade. Of course, this trick is applicable to any occasion.
