No More free seat selection at check in?
it's been a few months since my last Aer Lingus flight ... but attempting to check in yesterday for my flight tomorrow (48 hours) from Heathrow there wasn't an option to select a seat for free

and trying again today (24 hours) - there still aren't any free seats showing

is there no longer any way of choosing your seat for free?
this was one of the differentiators between the FR lottery and the EI civilised experience!
