Well my daughter is 12 and is not very agreable to be sat next to strangers (we have a plan - she'll pretend to be wanting to be sick if it happens...)
+ if people are allowed to pay to book particular seats it is going to make it difficult for checking staff to move them around to accomodate those audacious enough to want to sit close to their families without paying this levy.
And I can predict similar issues on board if someone was to ask another pasenger to swap if said pax has paid for seat X.
I can further predict that I'll be happier to switch to Virgin to Orlando on future trips to FL.
Happy I got travel insurance with SAFI 'cause the way their going I might need it...
