Are easyJet upfront seats worth it?

These are absolutely standard seats. Realistically the only good seats on EasyJet flights are the front row - row 1, and the two emergency exit rows, and you pay extra for these. Apart from that it's all the same apart from the back two rows which you might want to avoid because of people queuing for the toilets.

It all depends on how many other people on that particular flight decide to pay to select their seats. If it is going to upset you to be apart, even for only a relatively short time, then bite the bullet and pay to select your seats now rather than leaving it to chance.

Specifically, pick a window seat on the left side of the aircraft. These seats are usually off-center, making leaning up against the side of the plane more comfortable. A bulkhead seat is also a great option because you don't have to worry about anyone reclining into your space.

Seat prices on an airplane can vary based on several factors, including location within the aircraft: Planes tend to nose in to terminals so the front is easier and quicker to access / disembark, so worth paying a premium for. The back of the plane is nearer/behind the engines so noisier.

How do you avoid a seat selection fee? If you're traveling with a group, the best way to avoid a seat selection fee is to book your seats at the same time. If the airline is assigning seats for you, it typically seats people under the same record locator number together.

This seat decision usually happens at the time of booking. However, if you didn't get the option you're after then, you can always approach the counter before boarding to see if there are open seats available. Or, try asking the crew upon boarding if you can swap seats during the flight.

One disadvantage is certainly that many people have poor time management and arrive too late at the airport if they check in online. For some, this can lead to unwanted time pressure. On the other hand, those who still have to check in at the airport itself usually arrive early enough and are therefore over-punctual.
