Hello pshepvic
When flying Qantas, we want to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Much of this comes down to your seat. So to make choosing your seat as easy as possible, there are a number of different seat selection options available to you as a Platinum Qantas Frequent Flyer:
Advance Seat Selection
Paid Exit Row Seating using cash or points
Seat Preference Selection via Your Profile
Advance Seat Selection
The best way to get your preferred seat from all those available to you is to use Advance Seat Selection. Advance Seat Selection allows you to request a specific seat location and is available from the moment you complete your booking, up until three hours before your scheduled departure - provided you have not already checked-in.
To use Advance Seat Selection, simply click on the 'Select Seat' ICON on the booking receipt you will receive when booking via qantas.com. Alternatively, you can log into Your Account once your booking has been completed, or you can ask your travel agent or Qantas Telephone Sales agent to select your seat for you.
How do I use Advance Seat Selection?
Once you have made your booking:
• Sign into Your Account at qantas.com
• Select 'View Your Bookings'
• Then select 'View/Change'
• Finally, click on 'Select Seats' in your booking
As a Platinum Frequent Flyer, you'll be able to request any available seat from a preferential seating zone. Advance Seat Selection is complimentary to you, and anyone travelling with you in the same booking on Qantas Domestic and International flights (excluding QantasLink) that are numbered QF400-1349 and QF1-199.
For extra comfort, purchase an Exit Row Seat
Qantas Frequent Flyers, can also choose to redeem points or pay an additional amount to enjoy the comfort of an Exit Row Seat in Economy on most Qantas International flights. To book an Exit Row Seat, log into Your Account once your booking has been completed or phone Qantas Telephone Sales (subject to availability, terms and conditions apply).
Your Seat Preference Selection
Within Your Profile, you can nominate your preferred seating arrangement such as an Aisle or Window so that when you purchase a ticket in Premium Economy, Business or First, and have not requested a seat using Advance Seat Selection, we will allocate you a seat as close as possible to your preference at the time of booking.
If you make a booking in Economy, and haven't requested a seat using Advance Seat Selection or purchased an Exit Row Seat, we will try to accommodate your seating preference at the time of check-in.
Yours Sincerely
Sid Gokani
Head of Loyalty Operations.
