Window vs aisle seat – the age-old debate on which aeroplane seat is best. But no matter your preference, United is making it easier for travellers to sit in their favourite seat type even if their preferred seat isn’t available during booking. Fliers can find the new feature in the United mobile app, request their preferred seat and automatically get moved if one opens up. Here’s how it works:
· - Request your desired seat in the mobile app if your preferred seat type isn’t available at the time of booking your flight.
· - Select where you’d like to sit, including preferences for window or aisle seats, exit rows or bulkhead seats.
· - Get automatically assigned and notified about your new seat assignment if your preferred choice becomes available.
