What I am trying to discover is the approximate algorithm which EJ use when allocating seats, ie do they start at the back or at the front and is it in order of booking, or of check-in,etc.
For example, the last airline I used started at the back, and allocated seats as customers checked-in. This means that the first passengers to check in get lousy seats, which seems a bit unfair and might even put some people off flying at all.
