As I already have enough plastic cards in more or less shining colors I'd prefer some real metal. I could still try to get an Amex Cent in titanium version though

I am not asking for investment tips, just for arguments. I am quite positive that my current investments are not all too bad.

Just a comment on that:
Was yesterday on LH 3741 ZRH-MUC at A63. It's LH CL metal with an RJ85. And it was on a United ticket (connecting from IAD). At IAD I got 16E assigned and the Agent was not able to find any other seat. Well, UAL....cause at time of checkin for my TATL flight I doubt, everyone had already checked-in for that LH flight but anyways...

As you maybe remember, I'm 1,98m tall so I really do not want to sit in a middle seat - same as you.

We landed too early in ZRH from IAD so I went to the SEN lounge and asked if I could get another seat. The lady told me to ask at the gate, cause she can't do anything. Ok, was at the gate really early then and asked the GA very friendly if there's a change to get a different seat. She (had a SWISS sticker on her jacket - and was btw very cute) asked me to be patient - she will try to do her best. She kept my BP. Shortly before boarding begun she came to my waiting seat (rather than calling me) and handed me with a smile my new BP with the first Eco row D seat. I thanked her much! (C was full with 27 pax). Also a nice farewall at the gate while boarding. After boarding was completed I looked around and as far as I could see there were only 2 seats empty in Eco (they also announced that the plane is going to be verry full). One next to me (a middle seat) and one in the row behind me (window). No clue if it was just luck or due to SEN. But I found it really nice.....especially after a long TATL flight.....

I always have to laugh when they announce a flight to be very full. Either it is full or it isn't IMHO ...

So where were you? Jumping off a bridge is no excuse for not posting on FT.
