which means I am 24 hours behind those with a single flight to select a seat. What kind of unfair and ridiculous system it is? I pay the SAME fare(actually more if counting the fare of connecting flight) as with many of those other passengers on the same flight!
I have a bad back which will got uncomfortable after 8 hours of flight. So in long haul I always request for an aisle seat which make me feel better. I have my frequency flyer preference always indicating I need an aisle seat, and I always got one from other airlines EXCEPT CX, for the last two flights with it.
Don’t tell me that I can pay to reserve an aisle seat! Why should I pay a premium when nobody or other airlines need to???
This time, I am unlucky as well and got assigned, unwillingly, a seat 40F(non-aisle) as I checked-in 24 hours later than other passengers.
I immediately called the online customer services but they are unable to help at all. Just keep telling me to ask at the gate or after
