She captioned the clip: “An overthinker, outsmarting the airlines.”
At the beginning of the video, she said, βYou know when it's 24 hours before your flight, and then you get to check in, and that's how you find out which seat you're in?
“I have never been randomly assigned to a middle spot, and I will continue to do so.”
Bethany noted that her hack starts when you book the ticket and not when you check in for your flight.
The frequent flyer explained that you should skip the option where the airline asks you to choose your seat.
She joked, “Don't even look at that.”
The content creator noted that you must check in “immediately” 24 hours before the flight opens to get your seat assignment.
βYou get an aisle or a window,β she said, before noting that if you check the seating chart before checking in and don't pay, you'll be placed in the middle.
People flooded the comments section thanking Bethany for her travel advice
At the end of the video she said: 'How do we know this? I did it once.
'The last flight I booked… I looked. That was the first time I got a middle seat.β
People flooded the comments section thanking Bethany for her travel advice.
One person said: 'The best way is to just be fast. As soon as check-in opens, you're there! However, I'm always late, so the choice is middle or middle and I get a middle.'
Another user added: 'I can't, I have to sit in the window seat.'
Someone else commented: 'I will never not pay to pick.'
βWait, I've been unintentionally doing this for years. Make sure you always sit by the window,β someone else said.
