Also, selecting a seat in AC J isnīt as important as it is with other airlines as the difference between the pods is marginal.

Yes, I prefer certain seats such as 6A/6K on the 77W, but once all my favourite seats are gone I may not even bother to call in to select a seat as all other pods are essentially identical.

Between pax who donīt know how to select seats, pax who canīt select seats, pax who canīt be bothered to select seats, incompetent/lazy assistants/TAs and tour groups there are quite a few pax who donīt select a seat in advance.
