I logged back in a few hours later to find 4E was now allocated.
Rows 5-9 were almost all empty, as well as both exit rows. Why on earth would someone deliberately choose that seat? I'm sorely tempted to stay in 4D and ask them.
Their married their childhood sweetheart who they met at school, when they were both in class 4E?
But really, why are you upset? You tried your trick and it didn't work, this is the downside whether other seats are empty or not. You made your decision freely, they made theirs freely.
