I did something like that last year. And then I got to pick my seats at 10 months, 9 months, 8 months, 7 months, 6 months (twice), 5 months, 4 months (twice), 3 months, 2 months, 1 month (twice), 1 week, and still didn't sit in the seats I picked for the return. I've never seen an airline change equipment and schedules as much as I saw Delta change them for that trip. Ok, maybe I exaggerated slightly. I think we booked 7 months out but the rest still holds true.
