I looked at 1160 on 5/4, the only available "E+" seats were exit rows 20 and 21. There were lots of available E- seats available in between the ELR rows.

Let us know what you actually see after you fly on May 4.

Ahh you're correct; it shows the individual exit/bulkhead rows only as E+

The change was the section from row 7 - 19 is in a shade of blue compared to the rest of economy. So they successfully conned me into thinking it was the premium economy section.
