Hiya

If you want to pre-book your seats on this flight you should be able to do this over the phone with Flying Club, have you tried calling them? If not, i would try this as they should have access to the seat map if there is one for the flight.

Try that and let us know how you get on

Thanks
Sarah

UPDATE [^]horrra VS079 and VS080 to St Lucia[8D] do now exist on the VA web site.

Ive checked the seats we booked on the phone in January all OK.

So [y]thumbs up to VA holidays and VA.

And most importantly another destination out of the Manchester hub, wow Orlando, Barbados and St Lucia whats next[:?](just hope there popular to keep going[?] we shall see!).

Exceelent work - and yes it gets really frustrating when you have done all your bookng and then go back to make a small change - I once chatted with the VH staff about seat avaialability and apparently VS only let them have a few seats at a time - there was info on here a while back about UCS availabilty - its a bit silly really because you want to book on dates to suit you but sometimes get diverted from tose dates by the avaialability of the seats you want!! its a Grrrrr!! moment.

va.com is now pushing the Manchester flights on its homepage. The homepage links off to the following page
