I also didn't hang up and call again due to the call dropping a couple of times and then on hold for ages before I finally got through.

Any experience/advice?
Unless things have changed recently that's how I understand it, which is why those seats are always blocked online. You can request these seats, but the only guarantee is to be at the front of the herd at check-in.

Good luck!
