My Premier Executive status didn't even get me a decent seat (37H). Do I have any other options for upgrading or getting a better seat?</font>
I've flown MAN-ORD/IAD with bmi several times as a lowly MP member and then a Premier and have never had any problems whatsoever getting a bulkhead or exit row seat. I just called MP and asked for them and they were assigned instantly.
At least as a 1P you can avoid the outrageous queues at MAN check in. I arrived for the ORD flight last week 45 minutes before check-in opened and there were 50 people already waiting!
Enjoy your trip.
