Quick Question about $ for ER seats
 

If you are flying on a connecting flight and you pay for the revenue for the ER seats does it apply to both flights?

My friends are flying SFO -BOS and BOS to EWR.. They were put into the ER on the first flight but the CO rep said they couldn't get it on the second flight.

I went into her account and I was able to put her into Row 21 without a hitch. What's the right answer?

Is ER supposed to be economy plus? If so, the second flight was probably on CO metal which doesn't have the extra leg room, so there was nothing to buy into.

If ER is something else, please clarify

ER = Emergency Row.. Row 20 and 21 on most planes..not the same as E+

Sorry, didn't realize at first this was in the CO specific sub forum

United/Continental now calls the emergency row "economy plus" on Continental planes, or at least it does when I check in and do my seating assignments.

I believe that ELR (Extra Leg Room) plus ER (Emergency Row) seats are being relabeled to E+ (Economy Plus). Makes sense since they are eventually introducing E+ seating to all CO planes.

Nope. If you have to pay to get into those seats you pay per segment.

Thanks for the answer...That's what they(CO) told her. Yet, I was able to move her to 21AB without paying for it. At least i think I did. I was in her nonelite account not mine when I did it.

Could they have charged her CC? No place was I asked if I wanted to pay for the seats. I simply changed the seats and voila it was done!

Maybe this second flight on a connecting flight is a computer glitch with regard to ER purchases? I certainly hope there's no extra charges on my friend's CC on file!:confused:
