Hi all
On 23 Nov we flew CBR-OOL on a 717. As a WP I got free exit row access for me, my wife (also WP) and a one-off, non-status guest. This is always a nice benefit and one I was hoping to take more advantage of in future, given CBR seems to be getting a higher proportion of 717 flights.
BUT - our next (currently) scheduled trip involves return CBR-MEL flights. These were originally on 737s, but I got an email today changing them to 717s. I was pretty happy about that initially, but when I went to select seats for the amended flights, I saw that the exit rows were $15.00. So I left it - at least on the 717 the two of us can take seats A and C.
Anyone else had this experience? Possible glitch, or probable enhancement?
Cheers,
Horatio
