Frequently Asked Questions
What is Seat Selection?
Seat Selection lets you choose your own seat on the aircraft directly from our website, so you know exactly where you will be sitting before you fly.
What is the difference between Pre-booking and Post-booking seat selection?
With Pre-booking, you choose your seat during the booking process and pay everything in one go. With Post-booking, you buy your ticket first and then choose your seat later from My Booking. Which option you get depends on the airline.
Which airlines offer Pre-booking seat selection?
Biman Bangladesh Airlines (BG), Air India (AI), Air China (CA), Cathay Pacific (CX), Ethiopian Airlines (ET), flydubai (FZ), Gulf Air (GF), Himalaya Airlines (H9), Kenya Airways (KQ), Kuwait Airways (KU), Malaysia Airlines (MH), China Eastern (MU), Batik Air Malaysia (OD), Pegasus Airlines (PC), Philippine Airlines (PR), Royal Jordanian (RJ), Thai Airways (TG) and SriLankan Airlines (UL).
Which airlines offer Post-booking seat selection?
Emirates (EK) and Singapore Airlines (SQ). Seats can be selected only after the ticket has been purchased.
How do I select a seat during booking (Pre-booking)?
Choose a flight from a supported airline, continue to the Seat Selection stage, pick your preferred seat, and pay the full amount. Your e-ticket will be issued with your selected seat.
Do I have to select a seat while booking?
No, it is optional. You can continue without choosing a seat if you prefer.
Do I need to pay extra to select a seat?
Yes. Seat selection is a paid service. For Pre-booking, the seat fee is added to your total, and you pay the full amount at once. For Post-booking (Emirates and Singapore Airlines), you pay the airline's seat charge plus the ShareTrip service charge.
Can I choose seats for everyone traveling with me?
Yes, you can select seats for each eligible passenger in your booking. Choosing seats together helps you sit next to your companions, subject to availability.
Can I select a seat for my child or infant?
For Emirates and Singapore Airlines (Post-booking), seats cannot be selected for child or infant tickets. For Pre-booking airlines, availability for child and infant passengers follows each airline's policy.
The seat I wanted is not available. What can I do?
Seats shown as unavailable are already taken, blocked or reserved by the airline. Please choose another available seat from the seat map.
Can I change my seat after it is confirmed?
Seat changes depend on the airline's policy. Please contact ShareTrip support for help, and note that the seat selection fee is non-refundable.
Is the seat selection fee refundable?
No. The seat selection service is non-refundable, including if you change or cancel your booking.
I did not select a seat while booking. Can I do it later?
For Emirates and Singapore Airlines, yes: go to My Booking > Show More > Seat Details > Choose the Seat. For other airlines, seat selection is offered during booking. Please contact ShareTrip support to check your options.
