Hi All,
I've been looking through various threads, and I was hoping to get a better sense of what "preferred" seating means for various ST carriers--an advertised benefit for ST elite/+ members. On DL metal, for example, elite members can secure an exit row seat, seats in the forward part of the cabin, and, domestic Y+ down the road. But what about other airlines like KE, AF, AZ, KL, SU, etc.? Whenever I fly KE or SU, for instance, they never let me reserve a bulkhead or exit row seat. For AF, an exit row seat isn't PV and thus NOT subject to additional monies. On KL, an exit row counts as Economy Comfort and there is a charge for ST elite members.
Anyone else have experiences with the other airlines? I wish there would be some standardization here. It'd be nice to compile a list of people with their current DL SM status and what seats they've been able to pre-reserve as "preferred" seating on other ST carriers.
Thanks, FT!
