Is it possible to choose my own seat on the train?

Asked 2 years ago
The ability to choose your own seat on a train booked through The Trainline depends on the specific train operator and the type of ticket purchased. Some operators offer seat selection as part of the booking process, allowing passengers to choose their preferred seats. This option is typically available for specific routes and services. In some cases, seating may be automatically assigned at the time of booking, especially for advance purchase tickets. Passengers are encouraged to look for seat selection options during the booking process, as it may be highlighted when selecting tickets. Additionally, after booking, it may be possible to manage your reservation and select a seat through The Trainline's website or app, depending on the operator's policies. For accurate information regarding your specific journey and whether seat selection is available, it is advisable to refer to the current web page that details your travel options and seat availability.
