BA booking seats?

joe2cool

Hi I believe with British Airways you can choose your seats for free 24hrs before flight, but if you have your flight booking reference & flight number can you telephone to choose your seats to guarantee 2 seats together on the understand there could be a cost? Its just that on the BA. site it tells me 'your E-ticket not yet been issued, so cannot choose seats'

Appreciate any help

Thx

You can choose seats earlier than 24 hours for £25

So is it part of a package holiday booked through a travel agent/company, or did you book the flights yourself separately to the cruise?

I would think you need to get your flight booking ref or ticket no from your travel operator and then you could log in to BA pay your £25 each and job done

edit, I see you have the above, I dont know then, if it says e ticket not been issued doesnt that suggest the flight isnt booked?

The OP needs to go to the company they booked through. It could well be that they will organise everything - they may have block booked seats on the plane and so the seats are already allocated. The ticket will be with that company too, so that is who they need to speak to, not BA, and it won't be a "normal" e-ticket.
