Thanks for the kind words.

Might explore the $750 option as I only have about 15,000 points each.

How would I go about it??

I'll also get to the airport before the check-in opens to secure the best seat, like everyone else. Any hints there? Does Silver status have any pulling power??

Can you book seats in advance?? I've heard an urban myth that you can??

I'm a bit concerned about the ms. being pregnant in regards to seating in the emergency exist, "are you willing and able to assist". Some of the people I see sitting in these seats couldn't fight their way out of a wet paper bag. My other half is quite strong even though she is expecting so will that be an issue???

Thanks
