Actually, If it was the AVV Charter for the air show, he was a lot older than 4. Closer to 50 actually (He was in front of me at the gate as he boarded and the FA said 'oh best seat in the house! 1A!'

Only the crappy Dreamtime seats anyway

Same thing happened to me!

They normally seem to be reserved for WP, or persons with certain needs. Sometimes though they don't get issued, or they get issued to other people.

If I can, I prefer to move into them through QuickCheck ... esp when on a tight connection or wanting to be somewhere straight after the flight.

Like everything else, no real rhyme or reason that I know of.
I travelled Syd-Adl yesterday, and as QP life NB with forward aisle preference, was preallocated seat 9C on a 737-400. With Quickcheck, I found that 4B,C,D,E were all free!!! I quickly changed to 4C and to my amazement 4B, D, E remained empty durung the flight. No, the flight wasn't empty...at least 3/4 full! Can someone explain what happened here?? I would have thought that 4D would have been a prized seat!!
