There are more seats that are unavailable for advance seat selection. These are the ever popular last row in economy. They are reserved for airport distribution as an out if a family or group has been split.

There is only a percentage of the total economy seating that is available for advance selection and it might be as low as 80%. My memory fails me for the exact figure.
