riffatsea Posted August 16, 2020 #1 Share Posted August 16, 2020 Have been playing around with EZ Air for our May2021 cruise. I know it my not actually set sail but am having fun thinking about it It seems that even if you book a business class seat on British airways itself(not code share with American)you cannot pick your seat. Has anyone been able to pick their seat before checkin 24hrs before the flight? Just wondering Link to post Share on other sites
beg3yrs Posted August 16, 2020 #2 Share Posted August 16, 2020 Yes, especially in business class. I had to call them to do it. It seems that not all the pertinent information BA requires always gets transferred from EZ-Air. Be prepared with your passport info, that's what was missing in our case.

AJs Grandpa Posted August 16, 2020 #3 Share Posted August 16, 2020 Similar experience to beg3yrs. I went to the BA website using the confirmation number I got got from EZ Air. Seat selection became available after I completed all passenger info. I did not need to speak to anyone. Good luck. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
beg3yrs Posted August 16, 2020 #4 Share Posted August 16, 2020 Yes! Our experience was long before COVID and customer service phone lines are now jammed. Get your PNR / Record Locator off the EZ-Air web-page and do it on-line. Link to post Share on other sites

Just wondering I have Premium Economy seats booked for May 2, 2021 through EZ Air on British Airways from Heathrow to Calgary and was able to pick the seats at the time of booking. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Kamloops50 Posted August 22, 2020 #6 Share Posted August 22, 2020 Sometimes you actually have book the flights before being able to select seats . Sometimes you use the flight reservation number on the BA site to select,your seats. Link to post Share on other sites

kiwimum Posted August 23, 2020 #9 Share Posted August 23, 2020 Just changed our flights for April TA, now BA business class LHR -SAN. Was able to select seats once I put I. Frequent Flyer #. Link to post Share on other sites
john1970 Posted August 25, 2020 #10 Share Posted August 25, 2020 It depends on your executive club status with BA and the fare level of the ticket purchased/held. BA will charge for some passengers/fare levels even in business class. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
DrivesLikeMario Posted August 25, 2020 #11 Share Posted August 25, 2020 You can choose your seat if you PAY. We regularly pay about $440-$880 for seat assignments because I happen to love the very last seat in Bus. Class in the corner. Then no one has to step over my feet. Flight attendants also know about these corner seats - best in the class. Link to post Share on other sites
