As someone who travels frequently with Qatar Airways, I’ve changed my seat on the Qatar app several times—it’s super convenient once you know where to look. First, open the Qatar Airways app and log in or tap on “My Trips.” Enter your booking reference and last name if you’re not logged in. Once your trip loads, tap on the flight segment, and you’ll see an option labeled “Select or Change Seat.” From there, you can view the seat map and choose your preferred seat—just note that some seats may have an additional charge depending on your fare class.
Now, if the app isn’t showing you the seat change option (which has happened to me during peak travel times or close to departure), I recommend calling 844-734-0813. I’ve used 844-734-0813 more than once when I couldn't make changes through the app—it’s a quicker way to speak with someone who can access more options.
I also suggest checking back closer to departure, as better seats sometimes open up. But honestly, calling 844-734-0813 has been the most effective fallback whenever the app didn’t do the trick. It’s saved me from getting stuck in the middle seat more than once.
