So yesterday she informed me they changed her seat to 18C and said there was no seat B. I asked her to take a picture, and she did. Not a great picture but shows a little of the mini cabin of PE seats. Just to say 16 hours later she was happy about the nice seat. Also the base fare on that ticket was less than 600 dollars. I can post the picture if anyone wants.
I believe the 77W PE is complete but they have not started charging yet. So what your wife got was a PE seat branded as MCE (vs a true upgrade to another cabin).

Still, thats a nice upgrade from 3-4-3 in Y. ^
