But also seems like it could come down to airport and if we want gtee seats, probably should rebook in award F and pay the 12K premium.
Empty seats showing on the seat map isn't a reliable indicator of actual loads/bookings.
Any yes, if you want the seat, then paying for it is always the best way to get it.
