If you're booking, you can see the seat map. Once you've booked, it may or may not be grayed out.
There is no consistency. Right now I have 10 booked trips.
Trip 1 - Outbound is in the process of a weekend change, possible equipment change. No seat maps are available and no seat is assigned. Return shows seats in C+, where I'm seated, RUC pending on return is grayed out.
Trip2 - Outbound shows all seats, and I got moved. Was just able to move back to my original seat in C+. Return, only open seats in class of service are showing.
Trip 3 - One way, only open seats in class of service are showing.
Trip 4 - One way. all open seats showing.
Trip - 5, 6, 7, 8 & 9 - Outbound and Inbound, All open seats are showing.
Trip 10 - Outbound and Inbound, only open seats in class of service are showing. TATL F with GUC's.
Note: I'm glad I checked and got my seat back on trip 2. Now I have to keep checking on trip 1 where I'm anticipating a downgauge equipment change.
I may also get screwed on some possible SDC's.
