Use the seat map while booking or in My Booking. Current Economy guidance offers free Standard selection at check-in or paid advance choice, with an exception for US-origin bookings. Premium and Upper Class include ordinary advance selection; Preferred and exit positions in Economy or Premium may cost extra. These terms cover Virgin Atlantic-operated flights, not codeshare operators.
You must be at least 16 on the day of travel, physically fit and able to open the exit unaided in an emergency. You cannot be travelling with an infant. Paying for the position does not remove the safety requirements. Exit-seat availability is limited to qualifying Virgin Atlantic-operated flights.
The airline tries to offer a comparable alternative, considering your booking’s group, Preferred or Standard category, and window, middle or aisle position. Sitting together can include across the aisle or behind one another. Exit seats and front-cabin Preferred seats are not interchangeable. If an operational change leaves no comparable alternative, a refund may apply. Voluntary itinerary changes, choosing a lower-value seat or simply changing your mind generally do not qualify for a refund of the original seat fee.
