Let's see the rule the their seating algorithm is breaking.
Well, yes, not disagreeing about that. When I jumped in it was more because I see a lost opportunity for FR [to regain some goodwill, if not to squeeze even more money from us] in this matter of seating, even if everything is already done within the legality.
