If you're not so far off from departure it's unlikely that 7K will be taken off you, but if it's a long time away it's a bigger risk that they'll change it at some point.

Apologies if this is a stupid question.....however, if this is, as it seems to me at least, an official policy that this seat is used as crew rest - why is it open for passengers to book? Surely it should be blocked off from the start and opened later, thus avoiding any frustrated passengers who have their seats moved?
