Thanks for the tip! I might try to get 1D or 1G then for my AMS-MIA in November. It's a little bit of a gamble though because if I end up with an old configuration, I'll be miserable. I've had the first row center section a couple of times and people constantly used my footspace as a cut-through to the other side, even though there's a clear path in the corridor just on the other side of the partition. I even had people try to climb over my legs when my seat was reclined and footrest was up. Madness!
