Flying high
by Melissa Petri on December 12, 2005
I cannot count the number of times that I have been given the worst seats on the plane. Perhaps, I wasn't friendly enough with the check-in staff or maybe, it was just a case of bad luck. Problem is, unless you know the airplane seat plan, you wouldn't know if you were given a bad seat until you board the plane. And, obviously, by then, it's way too late to do anything about it.
Yup, all rows seem to look the same but believe me, there are differences. And knowing the seats which are slightly better than the others will surely make life onboard a bit easier.
And that is where Seat Guru comes in. "SeatGuru.com is an invaluable tool for anyone booking airline travel. The site helps business travelers locate seats with laptop power and internet access and aids leisure travelers identify seats with extra legroom and in-seat video screens. Whatever your travel priorities may be, SeatGuru.com will help you find the seat that best suits your needs. Corporate and leisure travel agencies also rely heavily on SeatGuru.com when booking airline travel for their clientele."
So unless you can afford first class tickets, it would be best if you check Seat Guru before you head for the airport.

The one time I did get a bad seat I was asked to move 10 minutes into the flight so that a couple could be together. The new seat was grand.
I think it also helps that I have almost always flown alone. Then they can fit you in anywhere and don't have to accomodate you, your wife and your three brats screaming "I want McDonalds!" at 10,000 feet.
