90+ days out on flight..how do I get the seats I want?

I'm probably going to take advantage of the NWA Email Zone deal to London. I'm planning on taking the family. I'm looking at going in mid-February. When playing with the system and then talking with NWA via the phone, I learned that you can't select seats until you are within a 90 day window for the airplane.

Well, that's not all bad. Assuming it's a Airbus 330-300 on the outbound and back (and there's no guarantee of that at this point), has anyone got any advice on how to make sure I get the seats I want? Since I'm not going WBC at that price, seat selection is VERY important to the Mrs.thebigfish

Any advice other than after making the reservation on the net (it's a netfare only) and then call them every day til they cough up the seats I want? I tried using my silver elite status (whoopie!) and that didn't do much good.

In short, what should my gameplan be?
