We'll do our best to make sure that you and your travel companions are seated together, particularly if you're travelling with children. However, this depends on the number of seats remaining at the time.

*You cannot pre-book a seat on bookings made with a third party such as a travel agent or a tour operator. Please contact the third party to find out your options.
