However, he said as I am flying in J, I stand a better chance and will stand an even better chance if I book my seat in advance (which is 7 days in advance FOC as I am a mere Bronze and I don't fancy paying before that).
Should I be concerned? Should I pay for a seat in advance as per the call centre agent's suggestion?
Thanks.
90% of these “an agent told me” rumours are untrue and best ignored to avoid blood pressure issues.
