As for premium seats on board, you get them by either:

OLCI at T-24
Pay
Have status and get an op-upgrade due to an oversold situation

I appreciate the OPs opinion, however, but I can't buy it. Honestly the only place I would trust for FF advice is Flyertalk. OP, do me a favour and post your advice on FT and see what they say. If you end up with a bunch of FT users in agreement, then I stand corrected.

Couldn't agree more..

Now to sit back and wait to see for this post to appear on FT
