Have never let the system choose one for me. Don't like the unpredictability and while not always accurate, I like looking at the seat-map 24-hrs prior to departure to get a feel for the load...
yep booked through emirates.com
I never request specific seats. However its not about my choice of seat, never care as long as its an aisle seat. This thread is about auto seat assignment without being presented a choice. Either a bug on the OLCI page or a fluke.
