Allocated seating on all easyJet flights from today
Allocated seating will be on all easyJet flights from today (Tuesday).
Following a trial in April, the airline found that 71% of passengers thought allocated seating was better and more than 60% said they are more likely to fly with easyJet if it had allocated seating.
Now all passengers will be allocated a seat for free but have the choice of selecting a specific seat when they book to guarantee where they sit.
The airline will charge £12 for extra let room, £8 for up front seats (emergency exits, row 2-5 on A319 or 2-6 on A320) and £3 for other seats.
EasyJet plus! annual cardholders and Flexi Fare customers will be able to select a seat free of charge as well as continuing to enjoy the benefits of Speedy Boarding’s dedicated check-in desk and Speedy Boarding – allowing them to board the aircraft first.
Paul Simmons, easyJet’s UK director, said: "Today’s move offering allocated seating on all of our flights is the single, biggest change the airline has undertaken in its history and an example of easyJet trying to do all it can to make travel easy and affordable for our passengers.
"We are confident this move will not only make our current passengers happier when flying with easyJet but will also encourage new customers to choose to fly with us."
