Thanks. When the flight gets closer will the seat map resolve itself to the correct config? If it the new one, I'll be out E+, but there will be a couple of rows revealed of E+.

I'm guessing that if the config changes to the new, I can't put in to have my seats automatically swapped for the open E+?

I spend a lot of time and effort picking flights to get the seats that I want when I'm travelling with the whole family, so I'm not the schmuck trying to trade middles and odd seats. It drives me batty when something that I spent hours researching to find the best balance of fare, schedule and seat gets tossed. And what gets me even more is that after random seat changes, the lose the magic key and can't have some other poor schmuck get out of the seats I actually worked to get.

That and I didn't get a notification on this. My wife looked at me puzzled when I told her about all this and that I found it by looking. I told her I check seats every few days because of stupid stuff like this.
