SeatGuru<\/strong><\/a> is a tool that allows you to view the cabin layout and seat configuration of a large majority of carriers for free.<\/p>\n

In fact, when you check in for your flight, the airline automatically assigns you a seat. Afterward, you have the opportunity to choose another spot if you like and SeatGuru<\/strong> is a very useful free resource!<\/p>\n

SeatGuru<\/strong> can help you identify if your seat is standard or not-so-nice. For example, a window seat may be slightly misaligned (or even worse, windowless) and it would be unfortunate to be sitting there if you like a view!<\/p>\n

Before each of my flights, I use SeatGuru<\/strong> to determine which seats are the best, but more importantly to find the ones to avoid. I certainly don’t want to end up with a seat without a window after having spoiled myself with points for flying business class!<\/p>\n

SeatGuru<\/strong> ‘s website<\/a> gathers data on cabin layouts, seat specifications, and seat configurations on thousands of different aircraft.<\/p>\n

From the SeatGuru<\/strong> homepage, you can do a quick, free search to pull up the seat map for your flight. You can search with your flight number, which you will find on your reservation.<\/p>\n

Alternatively, you can simply enter your airport of origin and destination to find your number. The “don’t know your flight #?” option is found just below the flight number box. SeatGuru<\/strong> will pull up a list of all flights between the cities you entered.<\/p>\n

SeatGuru<\/strong> only provides information on the “hard product” of the seats; if you are in business class, you will always receive the same service, no matter where you are sitting!<\/p>\n

Once you have found the aircraft assigned to your flight with SeatGuru<\/strong>, you must click on “view map” to bring up the cabin map; the entire aircraft map will be displayed with a legend.<\/p>\n
