Hi

Can anyone tell me if seats 22A and 22B in Economy on the LGW-MCO and LGW-LAS flights are available to book as soon as flights are released or are the seats in this small economy area held back until check in?

Thanks[:)]

Hi
Can't help you I'm afraid, might be better off calling VS when the seats are released?
have a good trip.
Cheers!

I think that small section remains blocked off until check-in opens. I'd try for row 21 rather than 22 though as that's the bulk head row.

I knew that the bulk heads were not available until check in but not sure about the others. I don't like the bulk head seats but have read good reviews about 22a+b.

Thanks for your help, I'll give VS a call or an email to check for certain [:D]

22ABC are the best Y seats out of LGW.

No one is behind, except the FSM's office, which means no queues for the toilet, first off at your destinations and also the BEST RECLINE OUT OF ANY ECONOMY SEATS..

22ABC are the best to get as youll also benefit from a speedier service as normally the PE crew member wraps things up in the small Y cabin downstairs!!

This section is only available for allocation at the airport not at OLCI stage. I agree it is a good area, but one thing to think about, with Row 21 being a bulkhead this is where they sit families with babies, not so good on a night flight when you are trying to get sleep or just want a peaceful journey.

thanks guys

Neil ~ would they be available to select at twillight checkin or would you have to wait til the desks open in the morning?

Next question then.......what is the earliest you could get these seats on day of the flight from the check in desk ~ eg if the flight was the 11.15 one

thanks

I managed to get 22 DEFG at OLCI for our Vegas flight 13/04/09.
