Today I find that they were removed from 22 A & B and put in 25 C & D. Tried to put them back in 22 A & B but even though it was showing as available Delta.dumb would not allow it. In fact it looks like they did that to just about everyone who had an EC seat. Fortunately I was able to protect them in 36 D & E
Amazing. I have 6 tickets booked for family members and because of your post I went and checked....sure enough every one of them have been re-seated and in 4 cases 2 people traveling together were split up by several rows. It is incredible that they have this IT ability to introduce, QA, and release code this complex in just 13 days!

I HATE LIARS!
