Worse case, if it isn't, I can take the middle, and allow the other passenger to take the more desirable aisle seat.
Does anyone else do this? Is this considered "bad-form"? Anyone ever had a passenger insist on taking the middle seat because that's what they were assigned?
MsHalls120 and I use this strategy. We've never had anyone insist on taking the middle seat - especially on a long haul flight.

Hope you aren't on our flight this Friday.
