MU economy seat strategy
Hi all,
Not flown with MU before and I don't want to spend cash on preferred seats. There are some airlines where I will save checking in until the airport in hope of getting a seat I might otherwise pay for. Is this the right thing to do with MU or should I just take a non-preferred seat that looks ok?

Also, MU opens check-ins quite early (48h for international flights). I'd def try that as soon as online check-in opens.

That was at least 2 years ago. I called MU today, they told me some front seats (first row) are locked and can only be assigned at the airport checkin... Those unlocked first row seats are available free of charge only to MU Platinum members... This should be the most up-to-date info.
It'd be great if you could verify the availability when OLCI opens and at the airport.
