Seat selection
There is always a charge for selecting a specific seat on the aircraft when purchasing Economy Basic, Value and Plus fares.
Prices are quite high and start at 8 eur. You can pay for a seat in the front of the plane from 12 eur. If you don't choose a seat, it will be randomly assigned to you for free.
However, you can choose your seatfor free during online check-in 24 hours before departure.
If you check in via the website, you can then have your boarding passes emailed to you.
In the case of check-in via the KM Malta mobile app, boarding passes are available in a format that allows the code to be scanned at security check-in and on the gate, i.e. without the need to print them out.
In both of the above cases, any available seats can be selected free of charge (except for premium and emergency exit seats), so there is no need to purchase in advance.
