Now today I noticed that my Feb 10 MSP-SEA segment also changed from a 753 to a 752. Since I'm not EUA'd yet, I was booked in 29F - exit row window. They moved me to 16C -- exit row by the door. Not sure why they moved me to an aisle but 16A was still available so I grabbed it. Nice that they put me in an exit row. Although it's on the "wrong" side of the plane for this flight, I've never missed an EUA between SEA & MSP and I doubt it will start in Feb.

Both of these are after a disastrous seat change I had returning from AMS last year in DTW. The equip changed at the last minute and my exit row window went to an aisle in the back of the bus. I wasn't happy.

NWA has this penchant for upgrading me to aisles even though my profile says I prefer window seats. I really wish they would fix this. I'm wondering if that's why they put me in 16C instead of 16A when the Feb 10 equip changed.

I also wish they would send an email notifying you of equip changes because a lot of seats change --- especially the preferred seats like exit rows and bulkheads.
