Onboard Seats

You can choose your onboard seat in advance — and settle in wherever you prefer

We'll tell you what kinds of seats are available and how they differ
Standard seat
There are more of these seats on any aircraft than any other type. You can sit at the front, in the middle of the cabin, or closer to the tail. And settle in as is most convenient for you: by the window, on the aisle, or in the middle. The distance between seats is 24 to 35 cm.
Extra Space seat
This is a seat with extra legroom: the distance to the seat in front here ranges from 38 to 50 cm. Typically, Extra Space seats are located in the first row and at the emergency exits.

The exact seat arrangement depends on the type of aircraft.

This is important

You cannot pre-select a standard seat or an Extra Space seat if you purchased an extra seat for cabin baggage or are traveling with an animal under or on the seat: we will assign the seats to you ourselves.
