What I found interesting is that I was told at check-in that seat 30C had technical issued and would remain unoccupied. I was also told how lucky I was as that was the only empty seat onboard. Guess I ended up getting even better luck 🤣

CX tone are rather soft, unlike the AA boarding out of group tone.
