Etihad Airways allows passengers to bid on their very own row

Etihad Airways allows passengers to bid on their very own rowEtihad Airways allows passengers to bid on their very own rowFlying internationally for work can be exhausting- all you want to do in between meetings, conferences, lunches and dinners is relax in your own space.Etihad Airways might have a solution, plucked directly from every airline travelers dream.The Neighbor-Free Seat option allowspassengers in Economy Class toreportedly try and get up to three empty seats next to their own - fully paid, of course - based on the layout of the cabin and how manyseats are available. The price will vary based on how many seats are open on the flight, the airline told Ladders.And no need to wait Allix Wright, the companys North American spokesperson, told Ladders that this option is currently available.How to score a Neighbor-Free SeatThe site sayswhen passengers book online, they can bid for this perk. Those who score this seatingwill be notifiedbefore takeoff.Wright told Ladders that the company isnt able to comment on how much the service costs passengers, but that the price depends on the number of seats that can be bid upon, adding that the system has a defaultminimum and maximumbid amount set. It will not accept an offer lower than the minimum amount or higher than the maximum amount.Etihad passengers with a confirmed ticket document number beginning in 607, and who dont have certain things,including group bookings, tickets already upgraded using miles and more, are reportedly eligible for the service, depending on how many seats are free, among other conditions.But how do you send aloud and clear message to other passengers that those seats next to you may be empty, but theyre taken? WrighttoldLadders that the airline will equip those seats with specially marked headrests.Other ways to relax on your flightEtihad announced a series of specific changesbeginning on July 3rd,including that while complimentary chauffeur service will remain in place at its hub in Abu Dhabi, passengers will have to pay at specially negotiated rates in every other location.But guests currently have the option to stay in The Residence on Etihads Airbus A380 planes- each suite has a living room with a couch and tables, a bedroom with a double bed, and a shower room, and guests can reportedly take advantage of a VIP Travel Concierge service. These are a few amenities passengers have with this option.Travelers at The Residence will keep getting chauffeured for free where the planes fly, specifically, Abu Dhabi, New York, Sydney, London and Paris.Wright also pointed out different features Etihad provides, including a service called Flying Nannies. They help parents out by tending to kids on the flight in a certain ways, like getting them ready to sleep and keeping them entertained, and have recreational options.Etihad offers a variety of relaxation options - but for business passengers, having a Neighbor-Free Seat could be one wayto rejuvenate. And its a good opti on until airlines add more legroom.
