Who it’s for
The questions people actually ask before booking.
“Can we actually sit together?”
For couples and families: which flights have a true pair with no divider between the seats — not just two seats in the same row.
“Will my legs fit in this seat?”
For tall travellers: pitch and width vary more inside one airline than between airlines, right down to the sub-fleet flying your route.
“Where’s the bassinet on this plane?”
For new parents: bassinet positions depend on the cabin configuration, and booking sites never show you where they are.

JFK–SFO · Thu 2 Oct · Business
Planned for launch: each match will be checked against the airline’s current seat map at search time, so a pair is only shown while both seats are still open — with sold, blocked and crew-held seats filtered out.
How it works
Two links nobody else has joined.
1 · Describe the seat
Type it the way you’d say it out loud — “business class seated next to my wife”, or “best seat for someone 6’5”.” No filters to learn.
2 · Match the cabin
We check 235 verified configurations, mapped seat by seat from the aircraft’s own floor plans, and find the ones that physically contain what you asked for.
3 · Return real flights
Live schedules resolve which aircraft flies your route on your date, so you get bookable flight numbers and the seats to select — with a swap-risk signal.
