How to book seats on the plane using e-tickets

Until recently, airline passengers were content with the choice of seat offered by the carrier. Today, thanks to tourists, they independently choose a suitable place. Russians have already appreciated the benefits of this service, and for those who are not yet familiar with it, we will explain why such a system has become so popular and brings only positive customer reviews.

A person will be able to register for a flight wherever there is a computer and Internet access. It is appropriate to complete the procedure long before the flight departure. Online registration gives you the advantage of choosing a seat yourself. However, it is advisable for the traveler not to forget that the choice is available only from the currently available seats.

After the completion of the process, it will be necessary to transfer the information to paper form - here it is advisable to use a printer or a terminal, which is installed in the terminal building. The time interval for self-registration is long - the procedure begins one day before the departure of the liner, and ends in the last 45 minutes before takeoff. True, on Aeroflot's routes to the United States and Tel Aviv, the process ends an hour before departure, so make sure you have your personal time right.

However, we also note some of the disadvantages of the system. In rare situations, passengers manage to book a seat almost at the same time. In such cases, the seat goes to the customer who was the first to complete the procedure. Therefore, early clearance is guaranteed. In addition, we note another nuance. Seats at the liner's escape hatches can only be booked at the counter at the airport terminal.

Procedure steps

To check in for a flight, in addition to a computer, stock up on a passport and an electronic ticket, which is called an e-ticket. This paper contains a special code that allows you to check-in for the flight and book seats at the request of the passenger. Moreover, it is not necessary to have the document on paper - an electronic version is sufficient for registration. Although, when landing, it is advisable to present the airport employee with a printout.

The process goes as follows. A person goes to a special website of the airline and enters the booking number in the appropriate column. The tourist opens with the location of the proposed places. After reviewing the available options, the customer chooses a suitable seat and reserves that seat.

Travelers consider the seats located immediately after the business class cabin to be comfortable. Seats near windows and emergency exits are becoming no less popular and in demand among passengers, since the spatial zone there is much larger and significantly different from the rest of the seats on the plane. However, in the latter case, registration will only succeed.

Among the airlines, there are carriers that allow you to "choose a seat" already in the process of buying a ticket. This service is paid, but the passenger immediately reserves the seat he likes. Although the purchase of air tickets at the highest airline fares becomes an opportunity to use this service at no additional charge.

Features of booking on the example of specific airlines

Aeroflot is the leader of the Russian air transportation market. The airline provides customers with professional service and comfortable flights. However, at the same time, passengers are forced to comply with the established requirements of the company. According to Aeroflot's terms, people who bring animals, any types of weapons or a large amount of things on board will not be able to check-in for the flight.

Upon completion of registration, registered customers of the airline hand over their luggage before boarding. When departing from Sheremetyevo, acceptance takes place at special DROP OFF points, and at other Moscow airports, you will have to queue at the check-in counter. Remember, baggage check-in deadlines end forty minutes before check-in is complete. Moreover, the Aeroflot-Shuttle program increases the final time to thirty minutes.

Special attention should be paid to the luggage itself - it is appropriate to collect things so that the luggage fits within the permissible limits in height, length and width. If the items do not fall within the established dimensions and it is impossible to refuse to transport the luggage, you will have to register the luggage as excess and pay extra for the excess.

After checking in the luggage, the client goes through passport control and airport security checks. So, have the right time so as not to miss your plane and delay your flight. The service is developed on the basis of HTML 5 coding. This system integrates with web browsers Chrome 28 and higher, Opera.12 +, Firefox.22 and higher, Safari.5 + and Internet Explorer, starting with 10 series. Working with other netscapes is fraught with program crashes, so it is appropriate to adhere to the system requirements here.
