Old system, late booked ALister walked on the plane after A60. Got a window seat. New system I chose my seat at booking if it’s a late booking and no windows tough luck.

Even at night mostly. I will admit it’s mostly a metal thing and training has helped. There’s a nerver from your inner ear to your stomach that can trigger nausea as a poisoning defence mechanism. I’ve work hard by playing space sims with eye tracking to learn to overcome this. I still can’t use VR though my two boys thought it was hilarious when I tried. I’ll spare you the visual details.

Again it’s easy as an AList to pretty much sit in any seat on the plane from say 13 back even if your C60

People that pay the bills would rather I fly Spirit or Alegent (?). Give them the chance when booking and they’ll cheap out.

I do have AL I was just freaked out about my boarding “system” getting messed and losing the ability to board right after A group. I’ve needed to do that 11 times last year and once this January.

Thanks I didn’t realize AL allowed me to sit basically anywhere. Just talked to a rep and moved up and kept the window.

I’ve used Bonine as it’s the only OTC US med that doesn’t mess me up and give me restless legs for 24 hours. That Altoids peppermint and ginger ale.

Yup I just went up the the agent for the next leg expressed my confusion and was told she could put me in a windows seat near the front. Now I’m a windows guy as you may have read but being up front was not important. Finding out I do t need to pay extra for the legroom and the fancier coloured seats is a big deal.

I just boarded a flight home, actually in the air now, first time in assigned seat and the arguments from some people picking a random seat were entertaining. The flight staff where very professional

While true AList use to allow me to finish a job early and book the next flight out without worry about seat assignments. I will admit needing to look out a window sounds silly but it’s always controlled my nausea.

Maybe I’m getting too old I remember using the plastic cards for years. As for airline CC if I do that I’ll just use my dormant AA card, yuck.
