That’s too bad. It sounded like a great app. I check my flights all the time and know the changes before the airlines alert me. Clearly I have too much time on my hands! Lol. It is great to find travel apps through other peoples recommendations. I would have used that app for sure!

Thanks Jeff. So true. Sometimes they change aircrafts without telling you and hence the seats assignment changes. I always look at the aircraft and then seat guru. The other thing to check is connecting times and airports. We are flying business class from Toronto to Bueos Aires and then Rio to Toronto. SS booked us through JFK in the winter with an hour to change planes for our connecting flight. I would never go through JFK in the winter with that short of a window. De-icing takes 45 minutes and there are always delays in the winter. We are now going through Houston with a 3 hour layover at my request. Just something else to be aware of.

In a previous post I mentioned the seat assignment that I selected at time of booking changed after SS paid. I then just called the airlines to rebook the seats that I wanted. It was a simple enough solution. The flights were booked on Air Canada and United. I’m not sure this would work for every airline.

I booked my business class flights through the Silversea agent. He told me that flights were not paid for until 60 days out but that the flights were confirmed. I booked my seats when the flights were booked. Sure enough, 60 days out the seats were then paid for. However, when I looked at my seat assignment - they had changed the seats that I had selected. Just a warning if you book your seats when you book your flights - check to make sure they are the ones you originally wanted after payment is made.
