A reader sends me to this link, which looks like a cosmetic refresh in the works for SeatGuru.
Though personally I’ve found several inaccuracies in their seatmaps over time, shared several with the SeatGuru folks, and they haven’t corrected them. I’d rather see the investment go into keeping things accurate and up-to-date rather than cleaning up the interface, but I realize I’m in the minority of a minority of a minority of travelers, and won’t generate enough ad views on the site to justify any sort of investment to meet my needs…
Still, there’s no question that SeatGuru (and SeatExpert) represents a really useful tool in the traveler’s bag of tricks in order to stay informed and improve the travel experience.
Your experience re: seatguru not updating based on suggestions is interesting. Noting that Tripadvisor owns seatguru now: I have seen cases where Tripadvisor hasn’t dealt with bad reviews despite repeated reports. Maybe it’s a corporate thing?
Personally, I’ve quit submitting content to Tripadvisor. I just can’t stomach giving content to a site that isn’t at least meaningfully answering messages reporting abuse.
