Can I change my EasyJet seat once checked in?

If you've not already checked-in you can add or change seats up until two hours before your flight departs by logging in to Manage Bookings. If you've already checked-in and want to change your seats you'll need to contact our Customer Service team and they will make the changes for you.



Yes, you can still change your seat on an EasyJet flight even after you have checked in for your 2026 journey. To do this, you need to log back into the EasyJet website or mobile app and navigate to your booking. Under the "Manage Booking" section, you can select a different seat from the available options. However, unless you have an "Extra Legroom" or "Up Front" seat included in your fare (such as with a FLEXI fare or EasyJet Plus membership), you will likely have to pay a fee for the new seat. This fee varies depending on the route and the desirability of the seat. Once you have made the change and paid any necessary fees, you must re-issue your boarding pass, as your previous one with the old seat number will no longer be valid at the gate. If you try to change seats at the airport, the staff can assist you, but the fees at the counter are generally higher than they are through the app, so it's best to handle any changes digitally before you head to the terminal.

In fact, most regular airlines now charge for seat selection anyways. It's often around $10-$30 per seat per flight segment, so if you cave in and pay for that, it can add up quickly. You shouldn't do it. No matter which airline you're flying on, don't ever pay to select a seat.

If you want to experience as little turbulence as possible, it is best to book a seat above the wings. It has been proven that turbulence is least noticeable there. Another good choice is a seat in the front of the plane, as vibrations are also less noticeable there than in the back.

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.

As long as you ask though, you should be okay - there are no rules or laws against swapping seats. The best place to sit is actually the back of the plane, according to one flight attendant.

You won't know unless you ask, and that can also apply to scoring an upgrade. Some seasoned travelers have gotten upgraded during check-in at the airport or at their gate. There's no easy way to do this and no guarantee it'll work.

When airlines release their upgrade inventory closer to the departure date, they are often more willing to sell those seats at a discount in order to fill them. So, if you're flexible with your travel plans and willing to take a chance, upgrading to business class at the airport could save you some serious money.
