How to select a seat at British Airways

It is better to select your seat early if you do not want to sit separately from your family members or friends. If a child is traveling with you under 12 years, the airline will automatically put your seat together, but if the child is over 12 years, they are marked as an adult, and chances are they may sit separately. British Airways can change or select your seat as per your choice.

British Airways seat selection policy :

  • You can select your seat till 1 hour before the plane departure.
  • If you choose an exit row seat, there are some conditions you must fulfill.
  • No charges will be applied if you change your seat within your class before 24 hours.
  • If you change your seat after 24 hours, charges will be applied. The fewer hours left before the flight's departure, the more charges will be applied.
