When working in the "Web check-in at a cost service" mode, information about a seat selection price for checking in is displayed in the seating plan.

In the "Web check-in at a cost service" mode, if a passenger has already checked in for a flight, then the user has an opportunity to change the seat of the passenger in the aircraft cabin only into a seat with the same price. Seats with different prices are displayed as occupied ones in the seating plan.

Seat price management in the aircraft cabin is carried out in Amber DCS.
