I may be a little slow, but I just noticed this while selecting seats for a flight booked on aa.com.

I'm a Gold member. When I select a seat, the seat next to mine is automatically blocked. This only seems to work only in sections where there are only two seats across (like in a 2-4-2 configuration)
This is truly a nice benefit. Have they been doing this for awhile? Just curious.

Does anyone know when they start freeing these seats up?
