  • In case of an aircraft switch, Aircalin will do its best to book you on the same or equivalent Seat Plus, according to the new availability. In this case, passengers won’t be informed before check-in but would be able to verify the reserved seat on their online booking.
  • Passengers are still required to check-in before departure. This service is available on aircalin.com or at the airport.
