I hope for everyones sake that Im not the person they need to switch which. Cause 11 times out of 10 Im sitting in the seat I chose to and there isnt anything better to be had. No prob with say switching from an Exit Row reclining seat say 14C to 14D that is only if 14B was empty and 14E is also empty.

Its been very rare where the seat the person wants me to switch to is of at least equal value. I dont want Middle or Windows. 9 times out of 10 Im in the Exit or Bulkhead Row. In FC I want an aisle and not the last row, sometimes not even the 1st row. So theres very little that can be offered to get me to switch.

and the dumb lines like, you really dont want to have this couple seat apart from 1 another do you, I answer, Unless they stay together 24/7, they probably spend more time not together then together, whats the big deal. (if anything it will make for a quieter cabin).
