US Airways - Seat Selection

[johnnyr]

I have an upcoming flight to MCO on US Airways. I never selected my seats when I booked online. When I go into my reservation, I can't find where you select seats. Is this possible or only at the time of booking?

I would call them and ask for seat assignments. I have changed seats by phone before on online reservations.

I know you can do it after you have reservations or while you are booking. Check at existing reservations or the help section.

Thanks for the replies. When I called, they said I have to check in at the airport. They didn't give any reason, though. Should I call back and try again?

It is possible that since you didn't select seats at the time of booking, there are no more seats that can be pre-assigned before the day of the flight. If you are flying relatively soon, you can continue trying to get seat assignments before arriving at the airport. If that doesn't work, I recommend getting to the airport around 3 hours before your flight so you can assure yourself of seats on the flight. It sounds like the flight is probably oversold, and some people won't get seats without others giving up their seats.

Keep trying but do online check-in 24 hours before. There should be some seats released then.
