From 7 October 2009, British Airways is launching a new service to give more customers more control over their seating choice.
Nearly all passengers will now be able to choose their seats before checking in.
This will continue to be free for some passengers, whilst others will pay for this service.
All passengers who have not chosen their seats in advance will be able to choose from the remaining available seats for free when they check in.

We will continue to offer customers the option to choose their seats for free when they check in. Checking in on ba.com provides the earliest opportunity to do this.
As customers often ask to request specific seats before checking in, we have changed our policy to allow them to do so, for a fee.
Customers can choose seats from the time they book up to 24 hours in advance of travel at the following costs:
- Euro Traveller (economy in Europe) and Domestic flights will pay £10 per person per sector
- Club Europe (business class in Europe), World Traveller, and World Traveller Plus (economy and premium economy long haul) passengers
will pay £20 per person per sector
- Club World (business class long haul) passengers will pay £60 per person per sector
- First passengers can choose their seat free of charge at any time

Passengers wishing to book an exit row seat in World Traveller and World Traveller Plus can do so from 10 to 4 days before departure at a cost of £50 per person per sector.
The following customers will continue to be able to choose their seat from the time of booking for free:
- Gold Executive Club members (and oneworld equivalents)
- Customers travelling in First
- Customers with additional needs (this includes those with disabilities or
other special requirements)
- Silver Executive Club members (and oneworld equivalents) *
- Customers travelling with infants*
- Customers holding a fully flexible ticket booked in J/C/W/Y booking classes*
* Customers can choose a seat for free at time of booking, except exit row seats in World Traveller and World Traveller Plus which can be purchased from 10 to 4 days prior to their flight.

Uhm... qualche chiarimento. Oggi, i nostri soci Gold e Silver, i nostri clienti di First, Business ed Economy Plus con tariffe piene (intendo booking classe tipo F,A,J,C,W) e le aziende che hanno un contratto con noi, possono pre-assegnare tranquillamente, quando e cos desiderano. I rimanenti passeggeri possono scegliere il posto 24 ore dalla partenza, con il check-in online. Chi non sceglie questa opzione, puo' farlo in aeroporto. Ora, se qualcuno escluso dalle sopramenzionate categorie vuole un posto specifico, anche mesi prima della partenza, puo' farlo, con un piccolo sovraprezzo. tuuto qua'. Nel primo giorno di vendita, abbiamo raccolto decine di migliaia di euro. Segno che puo' interessare. Ah, chi ha particolari esigenze (famiglie con neonati, wheelchair) hanno sempre la possibilita' di pre-assegnare a gratis. FR non insegna..
p.s. se poi vi serve un posto comodo a gratis su BA, sapete a chi chiedere.
