I'm flying with someone else and we'd like to sit next to each other. Otherwise, I'd definitely take one of the single seats in the middle.

Good to know about airplane swaps. Can we change flights if they change planes even if we are flying on award tickets?

Agree about ORD. I've had bad experiences in the past there, so really I guess I was comparing the EWR 767-400 vs the IAD 767-300.
