Blocked Seats on A319s?
 
Admittedly, I've not done an exhaustive survey of flights and available seats, but on all the flights that I've tried to book on A319s so far, seats 5C and 5D are always blocked.

Does anyone have insight into what's up with this? I'd ask if anyone might have an opinion on the matter, but the answer to that is obvious on FT :p

They might be reserved for the day of departure assignment for people with disabilities since to be seated in stretch you will need to pay. Midwest used to block the first row after they're signature seats for 'bulkhead' seating.

I think they block those two seats off for wheelchair / mobility issue passengers. They are the aisle seats nearest the front of the aircraft (outside of Stretch).

This seems most logical.

On the E190 it is also 5 C and D.

That is correct.

I thought they were blocked for employees.
