I assume they just look at the empty seats on the plane and arrange seating so these requests are fullfilled.
I'd be intrigued to know how this impacts other passengers. Does their assigned seating get rearranged? Also how is this different from changing your seat assignments at check-in to the get empty rows / seats.
Would be a great option especially on Long Hauls.
Well unless a customer is paying for seat selection then I guess they will be moved to accommodate. I think Firefly has 3 or 4 different types of seats avaible for selection. The reality is the airline is getting to sell a % of a seat that wasn't or isn't going to be sold anyway.
"Also how is this different from changing your seat assignments at check-in to the get empty rows / seats." Well I did this the other-day on AC an hour before I moved myself to an empty row........da bing ended up 3 abreast and the rows behind me had spare middle seats. The difference with this option is that wouldn't happen.
