Here’s my honest opinion, over our imaginary coffee: if you’re tall, or if your flight is longer than 3 hours, pay for the XL seats. Your back will thank you.
If you’re a couple or family, pay to sit together. The peace of mind is worth the £10 or whatever. Trust me. Being separated by an aisle while you try to pass a snack to your kid is chaos.
But if you’re solo and short? Roll the dice. Let the system assign you a seat. You might end up in a window seat anyway. And that’s just free luck, baby.
The Final Boarding Call
No matter what you choose, remember: the Jet2 seating plan is just a map. It’s not a personality test. You can’t “win” at picking seats. You just get to your destination.
So grab your seat, buy a bag of crisps from the trolley, and try not to elbow your neighbor. You’re on holiday now. The seating plan stress is officially over.
Cheers to that. And may your flight be smooth and your seatmate quiet.
