I just booked flights with Qantas to LAX and return for our party of five. Hadn't travelled overseas on Qantas in a couple years.
Once I'd made the reservation I noticed that the Qantas website stated that there was a $25 fee for selecting a seat. I don't recall this being the case last time.
This begs the question - what happens if you don't make a seat selection? Would the default position be that my wife and I are seated together as we are both on the same reservation?
It's more complicated as we have three separate reservations, ours, another with two persons and a third with just one person.
We are not in a high tier of the FF program but my wife and I are Qantas Club members. Does any of this make any difference?
Also I recall booking exit row seats for $60 per person per sector on our last major trip (SYD-SIN-LHR-BKK-SYD). Now they seem to be asking $160.
Just wondering if there is any clever way around some of these fees?
