Seat - On Request
What does it mean when i select my seat and it says On Request?
I know seating is never Guaranteed but when does the seat finally show up as taken on the seat map? I'm flying F/J (next segment) and 180 days window just opened up, I'm trying to select a seat 1A on 77A. Is it keept open in case someone with staus wants it? I have no OW status

You will probably get the seat. It happened to me a few times on the 77A and I always got the seat I wanted.

There is always a slight chance someone shows up and needs your seat. You most likely will get the seat you want though. AFAIK, CX's F doesn't always get full although with only 6 seats (CX is not a fan of status upgrade), and the chance of having the rest of the 3 priority seats all filled up is quite small IMHO.
So are you flying out of east coast or west coast this time?
