I fly the RJ9 3x/week in FC on this same route (100% upgrade success YTD), just my usual flights are called out as separate flights for each segment. I guess one flight number on this itinerary threw me off and I assumed it was a nonstop.

I like 1A, but I like 2A better because I can keep stuff in the seatback pocket/under the seat. Unfortunately all the single seats (1-4A) are already assigned so I'm in 2C for the time being.

I only wish the RJs had some form of IFE and/or power outlets. Otherwise the F seats rock. I had one segment in an exit row due to a misconnect (I don't count that as part of my 100% upgrade rate )and that was a surprisingly spacious seat -- seemed like more legroom than the F seat!
