Booking seats

[Ritepetite]

Can anyone advise when looking to book seats on flight they show as available yet when selected a Red Cross appears and says unavailable?

Best to ask this in the Cruise Air forum:  https://boards.cruisecritic.com/forum/77-cruise-air/

Hi Clare’s I’m new to CC didn’t realise there was an air forum site but we have sorted it now phew lol

The way each airline shows a seat is taken varies. On United if you are looking at a seat you are not in, but it is taken, it is grayed out and inactive. If it is taken by you, it has the number 1 in it (for the person on the booking). If I have booked my wife and I on a flight, the number one will be for my seat, the number 2 for my wife's.

It would also help to know what airline you are talking about, and if you are dealing directly with the operating carrier's website.

Thank you for replying but as you can see I have sorted it now when I rang airline they said it was a glitch in the system showing seats as taken when they were not and I have now booked them
