"I checked in early to my flight back from Hong Kong and they didn't sit us together. We asked to swap at the airport but were told we'd need to pay. However, the guy at the check-in desk told us that if we had waited to check in at the airport counter, he'd have been able to give us seats together for free. So, never check in early is my advice."
"Check-in chicken is when you leave your online check-in for Wizz Air and Ryanair late in the hope that you get allocated a better seat."
"Waiting until the very last minute to check in online can occasionally mean the only seats left are those no one has been willing to pay for - those at the front of the plane and exit row seats with considerably more space to stretch out in."
"Some jokingly lambast the blogger for sharing their travel hack, while others recall being left with no seat at all - likely as a result of the airline overbooking."
