Thought I might catch the flights below, not at all busy from what I can make out. In fact surprising empty but thats another story.

Now I'm a lowly Premier and when going to the seat selection function I kindly get offered no selection possibility at all on the outward leg.

On my return I get one middle seat in E-!!

Weyhey thanks UA I can see it must be tricky to squeeze me in there. Suprised I wasn't offered an E-- (i.e. the Loo).

So my question is, the software clearly works off some other equations. Isn't it poor management that I'll have to waste someones time ringing up UA to get my seat manually entered in E+ (assuming they have them).

On a side point, does anyone think the probability of getting an Op Up is enhanced if a frequent flyer doesn't get booked in E+. Will the gate agent feel sorry for them, and thus should I just stick with my middle seat?

Thanks
