Thanks for the update. I'm on the TR 616 to BKK tonight. Way too used to complimentary seat selection on BA/AA etc with status. Last trip to BKI 12 days ago I managed to get 17C/D for the outbound and inbound on Air Asia for the seat lottery checking in online the moment it opened. Not so lucky this time. Price was fairly expensive for a SIN-BKK return leaving tonight and returning next Tuesday at 401 SGD as I just booked it on Saturday for a last minute medical/errand trip there. (The outbound cost a fortune!)
