I just want to book a flight with Frontier (I always go with the cheapest/shortest flight--hence I take WN alot for Nonstops, and cheap fares!)
I am not up to speed with the online functions/options, perhaps others will better assist. I can tell you that the forward rows of the aircraft tend to be held under airport control, so if you check-in early enough, you can probably obtain a more desirable seat if needed. However, the first few rows also are reserved for disability/special assist passengers and Frontier's Summit/Ascent EarlyReturns frequent flyers.
Regarding the inflight service, the $5 charge is for the DirecTV **or** the movie(s). If you pay $5 for the TV service, that is what you will get. If you pay $5 for the desired movie, that is what you will get. The fee is for one or the other but not both. Flight attendants make a few announcements on board so there is generally no confusion.
Overall, you should book Frontier if you haven't experienced them yet. I think you'll find great people who help make the overall experience rather enjoyable. The newer, more comfortable aircraft is just an added bonus.
