Inbound - all booked together HBO. Presumably we'll get the Silver assignment.

How does this affect the SSCI machines - is the HBO workaround still available?
I have experience of this from over the weekend. See my post here. In summary, whilst the workaround the select a seat for free still works, the seat availability between me (Silver) and my travelling companion (Blue, separate booking) was vastly different. SSCI seat map reflected exactly what was available for purchase on MMB.
