Choose your seat
Many airlines let you pick a seat when buying the ticket, on domestic and international routes, subject to availability.
FactSeat selection
How choosing a seat in advance works: cost, emergency exit, payments and changes.
Cost per passenger
It is usually charged per passenger and per flight leg, and varies by route and seat type (aisle, window, extra legroom).
Watch outEmergency exit
It offers more space, but has requirements: being over 15, traveling without children or babies in your care and being able to help in an evacuation.
Watch outWho cannot sit there
For safety these rows are not assigned to people with reduced mobility, visual or hearing impairment, or to pregnant women.
Not allowedUnaccompanied minors
Seat purchase is usually not available for minors under 18 traveling alone.
Not allowedIf you do not meet the requirements
The crew may move you to another seat without refunding the payment for the original seat.
Watch outPay on time
The seat must be paid before the flight (some airlines ask for at least 5 hours before). If the booking expires without payment, the assignment is canceled.
Watch outChanges to the flight
If the flight changes due to weather, strikes or other causes beyond the airline's control, the seat selection may be lost. The charge is usually non-refundable and non-transferable.
Watch outArrive on time
Even if you have an assigned seat, arrive early at the airport: if you do not show up on time you may lose it without a refund.
Watch outPayment methods
Card, cash, Zelle or bolívares at the official exchange rate may be accepted; it depends on each airline. Ask us before paying.
