Flight requests
Online advance flight requests can be done by the passengers flying on Virgin Atlantic or British Airways. Seat requests are not guaranteed by the airline. You will need your flight booking reference and surname for one passenger. This information will be sent to you prior to departure with your e-tickets.

If you're not able to request seats online, don't be concerned as airlines keep an allocation of seats at check-in. Extra leg room seats have to be booked directly with the airline (charges apply). Passengers must be able bodied and over 16 years to sit in the emergency exit rows. See seating policy on the airline's websites.

Passengers who require airport or flight assistance, should inform us at the time of booking, so suitable arrangements can be made.

Extra leg room seats can only be purchased online 14 to 4 days prior to departure. For more information please read the British Airways travel preparation guide.
