Ryanair has launched allocated seating on all Ryanair flights from February 1, 2014, which is now available when booking on the Ryanair.com website, which allows all Ryanair customers to choose their preferred seats in advance (or to book seats together with their companions).

Ryanair customers can now select their preferred allocated seat either during the booking process (through the ‘manage my booking’ feature) or when checking-in online with three seat options available:

Premium seats – Rows 1-5, 16 & 17 or 32 & 33 – giving customers priority boarding, extra legroom and/or faster disembarking all for a fee of just €10/£10 (the same fee as Ryanair’s current reserved seat fee)

Standard seats – Rows 6-15 & 18-31 – where customers can pre select their preferred window or aisle seats or ensure that they sit together for a fee of just €5/£5 (priority boarding can be added for a supplement of just €2/£2).

Ryanair customers who do not wish to pre-select their seats can check-in during the period from 7 days to 2 hours prior to their flight and they will be assigned an allocated seat at no cost. (Free allocated seats will not be available prior to 7 days before each flight departure).

Customers who have already purchased priority boarding for flights departing after February 1, 2014 can select a standard seat free of charge when checking-in online.
