Didn’t pick a seat on Breeze Airways? Then you’re leaving it up to luck. Some flyers don’t mind where they sit. Others get stuck in the middle, far from family, and regret not choosing. Breeze doesn’t assign until check-in if you skip seat selection. So, you might not like what you get. Want a window? Aisle? Extra legroom? That’s on you. This page by Air1Network breaks down what really happens when you don’t choose your seat and how to fix it before it’s too late.
What is the Breeze Airways Seat Selection Policy?
The Breeze Airways Seat Selection Policy includes:
-
You are not required to choose a Breeze seat while making reservations.
-
When not selected, Breeze will automatically assign a seat when check-in opens. Usually 24 hours before the flight.
-
Assigned seats are based on availability. There’s no guarantee you'll be seated with your group.
-
Seat selection is optional and available for purchase. You can choose during booking or anytime before check-in via the Breeze Airways manage booking seat selection tool.
-
Seat prices vary depending on the route, location of the seat, and fare type (Nice, Nicer, Nicest).
-
Flyers who skip Breeze seat selection may end up with middle or back-row seats. Breeze at 1-844-414-9223 doesn't offer free upgrades or seat changes once assigned unless you pay.
Can I Still Choose a Seat After Booking On Breeze Airways?
Yes. You can pick your seat after booking. This can be done using the Breeze Airways manage booking seat selection tool.
· Just go to the Breeze website or mobile app
· Log in with your confirmation code and last name, & access your flight.
· From there, you can view the seat map
· Pay for your preferred location.
You’ll see different seat types, including:
-
Standard seats

Extra legroom seats

Even if you skipped it earlier, the Breeze Airways choose seats option stays open up to check-in—unless all preferred seats are taken.
How Much Does it Cost to Choose a Seat on Breeze Airways?
Prices for Breeze Airways select seat options are different. It is based on route, aircraft, and location within the plane. This is a basic idea of what to expect:
-
Standard seats: $10–$20
-
Extra legroom or "Nicer" seats: $30–$60
-
Front-row or aisle/window picks: often priced higher
Choosing a seat isn’t included in Breeze’s base fare. If you want more than the default random assignment, you'll need to pay extra. The pricing is clearly shown when you use the choose seat Breeze Airways tool during or after booking.
If you purchased a "Nice" or "Nicer" fare bundle, Breeze seat selection fee may be included. These bundles give perks like carry-on baggage, early boarding & better seat options.
What Happens If I Wait Until Check-In On Breeze?
If not chosen a seat in advance, Breeze will assign one during check-in. That’s when most passengers realize the trade-off.
Here’s what could happen:
-
You may get stuck in a middle seat
-
You might be seated far from your travel companion
-
Seats near the front or with extra legroom may already be gone
-
Gate changes or last-minute reshuffles can move you around even more
If you’re flying with kids or need easy access for health reasons, it’s better not to leave it to chance. Call Breeze at 1-844-414-9223 to fix it.
Is It Ever Worth Skipping Breeze Seat Selection?
Skipping Breeze Airways seat selection can work—if you’re flying solo, don’t mind your seat type, and want to save money. But there are downsides:
-
No guarantee of your preferred spot
-
No control over proximity to restrooms or overhead bins
-
Higher chance of being seated near the back or between strangers
No seat selected means no control. Breeze will place you wherever there’s space—maybe you’ll luck out, maybe not. If you're flying solo and don’t care, fine. But if you hate the middle, want the aisle, or need to sit with someone, make that choice early. Don’t wait for check-in to find out you’re stuck in the back, squeezed tight, and far from everyone. That seat decision? It makes a difference. Call Air1Network or Breeze at 1-844-414-9223 to know more deets.
