Stop Airlines from charging ridiculous fees to pre book a seat.

What the petition asks
I urge you to address this issue by either abolishing these fees entirely or implementing a reasonable fixed fee for all UK airlines.
It is imperative that measures are taken to ensure fairness and accessibility for all travellers. The ability for airlines to arbitrarily set such high fees for seat selection demonstrates a blatant disregard for the financial constraints faced by many passengers, particularly families and individuals on tight budgets.
Such action is necessary to protect consumers from exploitation and to promote equity within the aviation industry.
