All I can do is to add it to my swiss bookings but I don't see a "select seats" feature.

There's discussion on this topic, for example, in this thread.

In the SWISS newsletter I received today there was a link to an online survey on swiss.com. (There's also a link to the survey on swiss.com right now.) I suggested the ability to select and change seats online as a desirable enhancement.

Talked to them today after my flight times had changed (slightly with no effect to connections) and they were even helpful in changing my routing, totally incredible. (no extra cost)
^ for Swiss Hong Kong for being very helpful! Great service! ^

Have a question for this forum,
I have gotten seat assignments from LX call center here in the US for an upcoming trip (lx23 F class) 1DG, I followed up on the LH website seats blocked out, expertflyer was showing the same thing, so this morning when re-checking my bookings LH was showing an entire F cabin blocked (red), expertflyer is showing usually available seats for no-nstatus pax...kind of confused here
i did call the US lx call center and they were able to confirm the seats of 1dg but was just wondering why the discrepancy between LH/expertflyer

Ability to hang up jacket in Swiss Y
Hi all, I haven't flown with Swiss shorthaul equipment in a while and forgot whether the Recaro seats have some sort of knob to hang up your jacket to the seat in front of you. Anybody knows? Thanks

There is no hook or knob for hanging up the jacket (unless you use the small handle holding the table... ).

Nota Bene: As the seat carves in where regular people wish to place their legs in comfort, its design has a huge advantage over the LH seats, as the german airline prefers to cater to passengers that have neither legs nor elbows.

Does Swiss still have preferred seating?
Hi,
I'm booked on a round trip to Europe with Swiss. Unlike all the other times I've flown with them, I seem to notice that they don't hold preferred seats anymore. I've checked this with Expedia, Checkmytrip, as well as the seat map in my M&M Senator lounge, and I don't see any seats marked as preferred.
Did I or am I missing something?

A330-300 F Seating Questions
I am traveling with a companion in F on an ORD-ZRH flight (operated by an A330-300).
The obvious choice would be to reserve the "D & G" (Center Seats) but I was wondering if choosing a "G" (Center Aisle) and "K" (Window) seat would work well for companions. I'd really like to sit next to the window, but also be able to talk to my companion without too much distance! Any thoughts? Maybe the aisle & window are preferred for 2 people anyway?
Thanks!
