Anyone flown TAP in a RJ145

[ashleyn]

I made a booking for myself and SWMBO on TAP from Toulouse to Lisbon on an Embraer RJ145. I thought I did pretty well negotiating the ebookers.fr site all in French. It asked for my preference which I put as Aisle and said SWMBO would be seated according to my selection. On completion, we have been allocated 14A and 14D. So 2 questions, seat layouts suggest the RJ145 has just 3 seats, A,B and C so what's with D and we are certainly not together. Anyone had any experience wityh TAP or this plane to confirm my concerns ? And do I have to wait to OLCI to correct then seating ? Thanks in advance.

From what I can find, these planes have 1 seat then the aisle then 2 seats and are numbered A= a window seat, position C = aisle seat and D = the other window seat. It would be possible to correct seating with them if you have your PNR but language difficulties may make it a bit hard.
Have a look at the web site under "Plan and Book" and see if they have a "manage your booking" section and see if you can make any changes

Thanks Eric, but their "manage my booking" link goes to "checkmytrip" and no changes can be made.

Yes, I got that far as well but couldn't really check without your PNR. I guess you are stuck with trying to phone them. Good luck

a quick google seems to suggest the seats are number A/D/F - so A and D are either side of the aisle. Likely operated by portugalia?
