glad you got the “old” check in page to be able to do that! Maybe if someone knows how to force it it would be good.

For the rest, bear in mind selecting a Flub seat at olci is a very high risk strategy. In effect, if cabin isn’t full you’ll be sent back to whatever is left in J, ifflub cabin is needed but other people would take precedence in the hierarchy (unlike upgrades it seems to be more directly governed by status), you’ll be sent back to whatever is left in J. In short, selecting a Flub seat only helps if you would have ended up getting it anyway but if for any reason you wouldn’t have, you’ll lose it mercilessly…
