UP Seating

I am confused by the seating options on UP. We have paid for UP smart, but
are seating in the 6th row (pink section on chart below.) I see that there
are three rows in front called Economy Plus, followed by four rows of "Preference" seats. Can someone explain the difference?

Thanks in advance.

"Preferred seats" are just more legroom than regular economy, and a little more comfortable seat.

Economy Plus - these seats have more legroom (same as preferred seating), and you also get a free meal and drinks if seated there.

There are 2 ways to get a seat in Economy plus - Either you buy an economy plus ticket, which normally costs alot more, (and includes free suitcase and earns more points), Or you buy a regular ticket and then pay $60 to sit in Economy plus. (If you have an Elal Flycard, you get these free if available at check-in).

But isn't UP Smart the premium ticket that includes access to King David and Y+ seating?

It does allow access to economy +, based on availability at time of reservation.

Is that where you were automatically placed? If there are seats still available in the Economy+ section just move yourself into those as you are entitled to them.

Thanks all. The "preferred" and "economy plus" labels threw me off.
Per the suggestion above, seats (not adjacent, but that's fine) in the front rows
were available, so we were able to move.
