Savers pass stand by
I am booked and confirmed on C with LH IAH - TLV on the 17th.
Trying to avoid the almost imposible connection (1 hour in FRA), I called CO and tryed to see if there's a better option and yes - there is only it is waitlisted (I class).
My question is.....I don't really know the seat availability (bulk head and exit row seats are always darken) - is there any way to know what my chances are? Is it possible that there will be 5 more seats left on that flight and I still won't get a seat? Any way of finding airlines seat availability by classes?

It is possible that CO will never open reward inventory on the flight.
A 1 hour connection in FRA from non-Schengen to non-Schengen is remarkably easy to make. I wouldn't worry about it at all.
As for checking inventory, there are plenty of tools but they are all a little different in what they offer. For searching CO reward inventory the easiest option is co.com. Using ANA would work, too, but seems to be an extra step without much gain of value.
