Seating strategy on772 AKL-NRT
Wife and I are flying AKL-NRT in March. Currently assigned 35AB. Has anyone had luck with the strategy of selecting window/aisle and hope for no one being assigned the middle seat?
I would have to call NZ and have then change seats as when I try to do it, the system keeps us together as a pair and tries to charge me for preferred seating.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Non status partner online seating won't seperate even if you select seat seperately. Premium call centre can be hit and miss unfortunately - I have had mixed luck but it is worth a ago.
Generally if you get AB especially up front of Y then more than not even on an empty flight someone will pick the isle C/D (In my experience) = whereas who would want B or E!
