-having my seat choice be honored
-not being placed in a middle seat when other seats are available
-getting an e mail from delta when my reservation is changed

Do I have to keep checking on my seat? Is there any way to avoid a last minute surprise?

thanks for your suggestions
It is kind of strange because I assume this is not an equipment change.
