Now I'm just annoyed/worried that since we can't pick our seats, we are going to get stuck with middle seats in the 2-3-2 configuration with no aisle access and much less personal space. I am guessing Emirates also wouldn't be open to allowing us to select our seats as a form of "compensation" for changing the plane type on us?
