Thanks for the tip -- didn't know at all about the 72-hour window. And I just snagged 4C, 72 hours almost exactly! (Every now and then they bump me into Euro or whatever Business is called...I am upgraded on AA segments via Emerald/ESP status. I wish I knew the secret for making that happen!)
In any event, someone over at Seatguru, etc., needs to take note of these different configurations.
