I should be happy to accept a few hundred dollars for this inconvenience, as my experience in the economy exit row seat for the UIO-MIA flight was not that different than it was on the MIA-LAX in a First Class recliner. They try harder to please on the international flights.
Thats great to hear it went well. Now definitely go and file a complaint with the customer relations department and you most likely will get miles and/or travel voucher for the inconvenience!
