Just to clarify one point--there hasn't been any mooing at WN for a few months. The seats aren't assigned, but the boarding order is. Everyone lines up in numerical order--usually the process is orderly and quick. I never get to the airport more than 30 minutes before departure, and almost always get bulkhead or an exit row.
