So what's your record of consecutive flights with the same seat assignment?
Four, I think. All MD-88s on one itin. Usually don't book far enough out to have it work out, though I do try.
More than looking for the same seat number on different metal is trying to get the same seat on different type. E.g. every time I fly an A319, I try to get 9-C, but on the A320 I want 11-C, etc. Also for some reason I always try to sit on the left side of the a/c if I can...nothing superstitious, just habit.
