Don't want anyone in that seat next to you? Etihad has the answer

Abu Dhabi - Say goodbye to crowded airplanes

It's safe to say every single traveller has experienced being in a crowded aisle. Your seatmate could be unruly, moving around or going to the loo. All of which affects what could be a relaxing flight. That is why one of the best travel perks to have seats on your aisle completely empty.
That perk used to be only available by chance. But Etihad Airways will be offering it starting July 3.
According CNN Money, Etihad Airways has announced plans to sell 'neighbour-free seats' in its economy class flights. This will give passengers the chance to buy up to three seats next to their own. If you value some comfort during your flight, this is your chance.
In a statement, Etihad Airways said that guests can 'bid' for the additional space at the time of booking online. Successful bids will be confirmed 30 hours prior to departure.
So, say goodbye to stressful flights and say hello to relaxation!
