Economy class front 6 rows all locked seats, Expert: Locking seats on airplanes may be illegal.

There are 10 days left until the holiday, and many passengers have reported that when they try to check in online and choose seats, they find that a large number of seats are "locked", with seats in the front row, by the window, by the aisle, and for passengers traveling with infants almost impossible to choose for free. Airline customer service representatives have stated that this is an additional service and there is no corresponding pricing standard, so the prices shown on the website are accurate. According to regulations from multiple airlines, currently most domestic airlines in China offer the option to pre-select seats as an additional service on flights, generally on international flights it is available for purchase, while on domestic flights it can be exchanged using accumulated miles. Experts believe that "paid seat selection" may infringe on consumers' rights to fair trading and violate consumer protection laws, infringing on passengers' rights to information and freedom of choice; it may also violate price laws by requiring consumers to pay an additional fee for seat selection after purchasing plane tickets.
