At the Passover Seders, one seat is left empty for Elijah The Prophet (Eliyahu Ha'Novi), who will foretell the coming of the Messiah (Moshiach).

Answer

There is no established tradition of leaving an empty seat during the Pesach seder. The tradition is to have an extra glass of wine for the prophet Eliyahu. Today, some people are choosing to have an empty seat at the seder table in honour of friends and family who have been lost in war or who are currently deployed in the military.
