tring Posted December 15, 2017 #1 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Does anyone know if we can book seats on Viking flights and if so when? We are flying from the UK:- Manchester to St Petersburg outbound and Moscow to Manchester on return. We are doing Vikings pre and post cruise stays of two nights in each of St Petersburg and Moscow.

Mark_T Posted December 15, 2017 #2 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Do you know who you are flying with? A large number of the EU based airlines do not permit advance seat reservations unless you are a high level elite within their group (OneWorld, StarAlliance, SkyTeam etc.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare OneSixtyToOne Posted December 15, 2017 #3 Share Posted December 15, 2017 As soon as Viking provides the airline booking number you can go to the airline's website and change your seat assignment or upgrade (subject to airline policy). Airline booking occurs approximately 75 days before departure. Not sure about the UK but in the US you can purchase Viking Air Plus for $50 pp and have more control over flight selection, seating, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tring Posted December 15, 2017 Author #4 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Thanks for the replies. Sorry, but we could have found this out ourselves, which we have done now. I thought it may have been a block booking, all with the same flight booking ref and when booking seats is often not possible. We are flying KLM via Amsterdam. Our booking ref did take us into the website were we can book our seats but there is a small charge for it. £4.40 a flight for standard economy seats (comfort seats and extra legroom seats are available at a higher charge). Probably not worth paying for the 1 hr 25 mins flights between Manchester and Amsterdam, but will may well book for the Russian flights - perhaps just so we can get aisle seats which we like. Looks like we can check in on line for the flights, so may still have some choice then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
