How’s this gonna work with families who want to ensure they sit together? Don’t people have to pay more to pick their seat?

Don't you have your seats picked before boarding and at check-in?

Yeah I never pay to pick my seat and have always had it assigned at check in, or occasionally at the gate. If you're a family that needs to sit together I think you pretty much have to pay at purchase. I always just gamble and 99% of the time I've still been able to sit with the person I bought my tickets with but I wouldn't do that if sitting together was important

I just used the online check-in that starts like 24 hours before the flight to pick my seat without paying extra, worked fine when I flew with my friends too, we talked to each other where we saw enough empty seats together and went for those^^

if you didn't pay to pick your seat in advance the seats are assigned at check-in which you can do prior to ever arriving at the airport
