On a rare occasion that I fly LA back to BNE on a flexi I managed to upgrade to Business with points. First time going business, so was very excited to be able to select 1C. It's row 1, and I always sit in the isle.
So I check in at Miami and Delta gives me a boarding pass for the LA to BNE leg too, and I am not in 5F. The middle.
And by the time I realise it, it is too late to change.
Why change it? It completely makes a mockery of the benefit of being able to select a seat!
On top of that I had Virgin America not recognizing any Platinum benefits, so not a happy camper. May be first world problems but it took the shine off something I was looking forward to!
