My BP is Sky Priority/Elite Plus, but my zone is 2?
Which group do I board with? I thought on AF metal, Gold Medallion boarded with Sky Priority. My BP says Sky Priority and Gold/ElitePlus at the top, but lists zone 2 as my boarding zone. What's that about?
Also, as I was checking in tonight, I had seat 50E reserved for months. I checked the seat map to see if anything better was available (no), then when I move on to print the BP, suddenly it said 23E (when moments before I was 50E on the seat map). Of course, I went right back, and naturally, 50E was gone. PIA, but could be worse, I guess.

Row 50 in this particular 777-300 is where the side rows narrow from 3 to 2 seats each because of the narrowing of the plane body. That creates extra room in the aisle, so fewer people bumping into me. I really don't mind being near the last to debark; I walk so fast, I end up lapping a lot of the other pax on the way to passport control.
