Wife- aisle
Son- window
there are rows of 3
then maybe the middle will remain open and my daughter can sit there??
what have you all done??
If someone does get placed there i am sure we could switch around so that they are sittin beside each other but it would be nice to have that extra set. I choose the 23rd row , but does the back part of the plane usually fill up last???
The trip is for the 17 Dec.....
thanks for any input

I always go for the last couple of rows in the plane when travelling with a lap child and then purchase the aisle seats. That way odds are..... empty middle. If, not I can always switch as people prefer aisles over middles.
