Figured they might actually put the kids and nanny together (2-3-2 777 on both legs) if I called and explained the situation, but I think I was a little too optimistic (only called once). Is it likely my kids and nanny end up in 3 different rows? Should I try calling again? Fares are changeable/refundable, so I can easily put them back in coach, but thought everyone would arrive a little better rested if I bought J. Any experience/advice much appreciated in advance.
