It doesn't show these as an option in my seat selection, where I'm in row 6 (8 across business). I called up reservations who said these seats are not available. Are they reserving these for higher status customers (I'm silver) or is this a system glitch? Any advice as to how to continue to monitor/give up on getting these former First Class seats?
Thanks in advance
They are now only able to be selected in advance by Global Services passengers. This is a recent change. About a week ago, they were also able to be selected by 1K members.
