Extra Legroom / Exit Row Seats

There appears to have been some changes to the costs for the above. Couldn't find any other posts to confirm as I'd previously understood it was £30 per flight for extra legroom seats and £50 for exit row.

Greg mentioned it today on the FB page as someone was just checking on the price. It's one that slipped in under the radar

Definite reductions on certain flights. Seems they have adjusted it to match length of flight rather than just a blanket charge across the board.

I saw something on the VS Fb feed about it = a pax had seen the new prices and was after a refund of the difference!

Strange that LAX/LAS is £35 yet SYD is only £30 ?| ?|

Good to see that they clearly say the exit rows are near the toilets / galley so there will be extra noise.

I did think that £20 for BGI was pretty cheap when I booked it... assumed I was getting some sort of AU discount (ha!)

I'm also told that these seats can be chosen at OLCI as you get a seat map with only the extra room ones showing. I am somewhat sceptical of that piece of advice, but will certainly give it a go...

Can someone tell me where on the A330 are the extra leg room seats?

Ooooh I have been told some 'porkies' on my recent booking v(

I was offered extra leg room seats over the phone during my booking as they were on sale. The lady on the phone said 'let me double check if there are any left as they were going like hotcakes at such a low price' apparently they are usually £35 but were on sale at just £20 each.

Checked later and according to the website, they ARE £20 for that flight with no special sale offer. Was going to buy them anyway but don't like fibs

Thanks Tonty for the invaluable info.

That explains my confusion.
I wanted to book an EL seat to LAX, when I called they said its all done online now, but I couldn't find it anywhere. When I searched for it, the result took me to the new style website that had the contact number I had already called.
The automated message repeated the same thing and then cut off.

I'll have to wait and see now. I've only once managed to get a EL seat doing normal OLCI, other times I do it at the airport
