PaxEx: South African Airways Introduces MY EXTRA SEAT

There is now a new way of traveling in South African Airways Economy Class, and it’s better than anything you’ve experienced.

South African Airways has launched a new product called MY EXTRA SEAT. The option allows passengers to block seats next to them, guaranteeing that no one sits next to them on their flights.

You can block one or more empty seats beside you, and travel with peace of mind while enjoying more comfort, extra personal space, and room to stretch out, lay down, or anything in between.

MY EXTRA SEAT gives you confidence and the flexibility that finally meets today’s evolved passenger needs. It can be used by single travellers, couples, families, and work colleagues.

Starting from USD25, MY EXTRA SEAT is available for purchase 24 hrs before your flight departure.

To reserve your extra seats, simply visit www.flysaa.com and click on 'Manage My Booking.' Select the Seats links from "Before my flight." From the seat map, select a seat for each passenger and pay the associated fee. Check-in and start your journey to a more spacious travel experience.

MY EXTRA SEAT service is only available on flights operated by South African Airways (SAA) and ticket numbers starting with 083. Other terms and conditions apply.
