Yes, and given that at least some people here must have normal tickets for which web seat assignments are possible, it is surprising that no one will volunteer the current URL for the page where you can make/change seat assignments. (This is not the seat assignments link on the EY web page, but the URL of the page it goes to after you provide a record locator, and on which you see your own flights/seats---but edit out your own PNR from the URL, of course.)

FT is supposed to be a place where people exchange information,.
