After i switched us to the 2 seats (with research on seat guru), hubby complained that he prefers to sit closer up to the front. So..back we go, in separate aisles. I am hoping for a paid upgrade option. I will keep you posted.

Edited to add that I showed hubby this thread and we are back in row 49. Hopefully not "too" close to the back. We will use the extra space.

Edited: this row appears to recline according to seat guru. There are 50 rows total. Yes to the recline?
