This is the second time this has happened to me recently, a pax chooses an E+ middle (with the window and aisle filled) versus an aisle seat in E- with an empty middle seat. What am I missing?
Last time I moved from 9F (752) to 30+D because the guy in 9E declined to move.
This time I stayed in 6C (320) while a guy stayed in 6B even though just 3 middle seats on the whole plane were full and there were plenty of window and aisle seats in the back (and I assume the guy was no rookie as he was on the plane before me and I got on as the last 1K).
Not sure about the 9E on 757, but I certainly will choose 6B/E on A320 over any E- Window/Aisle as the legroom is just insane and you have no problem accessing aisle from those 2 middle seats.
