Booking a seat now works on our long-haul flights too. When you choose a flight to San Diego, Atlanta, Ottawa, Cape Town, Chennai or Almaty, the seat map shows the twin-aisle cabin of the Airbus A330 or A340 scheduled on that day, with every seat that is still free.
Business: every seat on the aisle
Business is arranged one, two and one across two aisles. The single seats at the windows, A and K, are marked as Business Suites and suit guests travelling alone; the pairs in the centre, D and G, are made for two travelling together. Whichever you choose, you never climb past a neighbour.
Economy Max and Economy
Behind Business come Economy Max, a smaller cabin of its own, and Economy. Both are seated two, four and two, so no seat is more than one place away from an aisle. The rows with extra legroom and the preferred zone at the front of Economy are marked on the map and can be chosen like any other seat.

On a phone the map narrows its seats to fit eight abreast, and the seat letters stay readable. As on every VELA flight, the boarding pass opens in your browser the moment you confirm.
