So multiple seat options will become available at checking. Some in E- and some in preferred seats --- plus potentially in E+ as the other options get filled.
Is the bolded also true for online check-in? I recently booked a flight on regular E (Not BE) and all of the complimentary seats were already gone. I am hoping to get 3 seats together without paying extra.
