Do they pay premium prices for their tickets which allow them to do that?
Agree with Connecta.
But, when I book my ticket online, I can select my seat - is that for all online bookings? I am just a Silver member.
So if you are logging on 48hrs beforehand, I was there long before you.

But, more seats open closer to departure time.
As I mentioned in another thread, I booked a flight about 90mins before departure time and had an exit row, even with BN: 363.
