My UA 900 from SFO - FRA was switched over to the new seating chart today. But, this flight is not until Nov 30! I am in F going out and C coming back a week later.

I am guessing they are doing this just to limit seats in case a plane is ready, but probably will not be the new config. Time will tell.

But now the question is: which C seat is best? I have 15A right now, of course. Probably the safest to keep in case it is still old config. But if new, are there any recommendations for best seat? UD aisle still has the storage bins, so 15A may still be a great choice.

Oh, and an odd thing. I was the ONLY person in F on the way out and C on the way back yesterday. Today, both cabins show 1/2 full!! What is up with that? Are they blocking them for some reason until they know what plane config it is? It is still 6 months away!
