Hi,

Travelling 2 adults + infant next week from MCO to LGE in PE.
We are the second row back at one of the sides. Was told on the phone that we would be moved up a row, if (a) there was no younger child flying or no disabled person flying.

What is the best process of checking in to try and get these seats? Paying at Disney Springs that morning? Checking in at airport -- and should I even check in online?

Thanks any advice would be appreciated

Are you travelling on the upper or lower cabin??

If you are currently in Row 21 (upper deck) you can ask at Check in if Row 20 is free. Whilst it is at the front of the cabin, it is also where the toilets are and is perhaps not he best place to get some rest once the lights are turneed off.

ISTBC but any seat changes to bulkhead or similar, have to be done at the Airport.

My top tip is to do on line chack in (if possible with an infant) and see if row 24 on the Port (A&C) side is still free as this side is kept for Virgin Holiday passengers.

We did this last November with an infant.

We were not all able to check in online, and the bulk head seats did not appear to be available. As we were staying 160 miles from Orlando, the morning check in was not an option. We arrived at the airport about 3 hours before the flight and were allocated bulkhead seats in the downstairs cabin. We had requested bulk head seats in the bubble, but were told these were not available.

There was only one infant in the downstairs PE cabin!

Janeclar is right. I don't think you can check in with infant. What we'be done is just to call to check there is a bassinet request on the booking. We've never not been allocated one even though it not guaranteed.

Thanks for all the replies.

Currently in 15H and 15K, they said we could move fwd a row if no one younger/disabled there.
My daughter is a bit big for a basinet. Any other way of getting these seats other than requesting a basinet?

Thank you
Virgin Atlantic
