They changed the equipment BACK to what it was before. And when I changed my mind about a new seat selection I got: "This flight does not permit seat selection "
Grrr. What is going on? Do they lock the record for a few hours when you change your selected seat? The error message is user-unfriendly.
Edited to add: My guess is that award tickets don't actually qualify for advance seat assignment, yet the website allows it if a human being confirming the assignment doesn't catch it. I think my luck on that ran out today. I won't mess with my other reservations which have good assignments.
The Finnair site revealed my current seat assignments, which are acceptable though not ideal. I will try to improve on them at the airport. My chances should be excellent since this flight follows an overnight connection. So I will be asking the evening before travel.
