SIA introduces Preferred Seat Selection in India for Economy Class passengers

Customers of Singapore Airlines (SIA) booking an Economy Class ticket can now have the additional choice of guaranteeing a preferred seat with the launch of Preferred Seat Selection (PSS) by the airline. Customers in India will be offered an option to purchase a specific preferred seat, when they make their seat selection for Economy Class bookings, including KrisFlyer redemption bookings. PSS was implemented in India on the 1st of this month and the service is available on www.singaporeair.com.

The available preferred seats are located in exit rows and are guaranteed for a fee of USD 50 per sector, for all Singapore Airlines’ flights, except short-haul routes within Southeast Asia and flights served by Boeing 777-200ER aircraft (this aircraft does not have seats located in exit rows), on a first-come-first-serve-basis. Customers can also purchase a preferred seat anytime before check-in (which begins 48 hours before flight departure), simply by retrieving their bookings on Singapore Airlines’ website. The customer will have to pay for every sector in case of indirect flights.
