Lately, UA has been assigning bulkhead aisle seats to me unless I am buying a premium cabin seat right from the start and can pick the seat during the purchase process. When that happens, I just go in later and pick the seat I want.
Or auto assigned by a Corporate TA. They always give me the worst seats and I have to change them myself.
