What exactly are "Preferred" seats?
I'm sure it must have been asked before, but I couldn't find it: What is it that makes LH designate some seats as "Preferred" at their online booking site? Usually they are just the seats in the first few rows in their respective booking classes, but otherwise there's nothing special about them (and quite often those are not the seats I would choose). So, what makes them "Preferred" in LH's eyes? -- Thanks.
