Thanks for the warning. I checked my booking for next week and found that two shofthaul flights in Y both have "not possible/cancelled" next to the chosen seat numbers. I tried to change seats but according to the seatmap I'm still in the same (non-exit row, priority) seat I had selected previously. I confirmed my seat selection and saved data. When I displayed my booking again the same "not possible/cancelled" message appeared.

So I tried to change to different 'preferred' seats. The system has now assigned me totally different seats in rows 14 and 9. But no error message this time. Back to seat selection again and selected the same seats I had originally. And success this time. ^ It looks like the whole thing has been garbled.

You cannot change from one priority seat to another. However, it looks like you can change from a non-priority seat to a priority seat if you are SEN.

Since my flight will almost certainly arrive at a 'wrong' gate (Schengen gate) in FRA and passengers will have to deplane from the back I should probably have chosen a seat in row 37.

Lufthansa seat selection for intra-Europe, 10 EUR

Hey all,

I did a thorough search and couldn't find any info on this.

Seems that you can now select seats on intra-Europe flights for 10 EUR (regular seats) or 20 EUR (exit row seats).

Free for logged-in HON/SEN members.

The flight search function is changed too. Multi-city search is visually more appealing as is viewing existing bookings...

Sorry if this has been posted before.

They should charge extra for the front rows of the Y cabin as they often times have extra legroom compared to the back.

Does this mean partner airline*Gs will more often end up in worse seats on LH flights than used to be the case?

UA stopped giving good seats to *G way back in 2006 or 2007. Nothing unusual. Again, then was more then happy to charge for the E+ product

Can't remember how many times couldn't get any other seat then middle seat, unless would pay for it.

ASR for longhaul is now only possible against a 25€/segment fee if you are booked in 'cheap' economy (W, S, T, L & K fares) eff 28APR14. SEN/HON is free, companions not.

Companions are free if on same PNR with SEN/HON........The companion however does not get a free exit row seat.

Right, the exit rows are not ASR eligible.

This makes it easier for the average person to get a decent seat at OLCI without paying, not that awful.
