Be carefull when booking seats with airlines you don't usualy travel.
Found out a few days ago that Finnairs MD-11's armrests dont go all the way up (managed to have 3 seats so i could stretch out to the side). This would be great information to add to the seatmaps on seatguru.com... |

On an upcoming vacation trip, however, I'm paying for an economy revenue ticket in my name (I may need the elite qualifying miles to re-qualify as elite), but redeemed a mileage award for the seat next to me (using the EXTRASEAT first name, working through a United ticket counter agent). This mixed strategy might be worth your consideration.

That's not accommodating! That's saying that if you are a large person (granted, in their case very large), you HAVE to buy two seats, or they will not let you fly!

AS has Enlightened Second Seat Policy
Alaska's policy on second seats seems quite fair. Those needing the extra room can purchase two seats (both at the same fare) and receive a refund if all flight segments operate with empty seats.
The policy can be viewed at: http://www.alaskaair.com/as/www2/hel...econd-seat.asp Note that the possibility of refunds does not apply to those needing the second seat for their "cello" or other valuable cabin baggage. And "normal" sized persons can't expect a refund for a second seat. You qualify if you can sit comfortably with both armrests down. In practical terms, you probably qualify if you need the seatbelt extention. |
