do airlines prefer to fill in non emergency seats before they start placing passengers on the emergency ones? - eviltoast

last 2 times I flew I didn’t check in online and when they printed my boarding pass at the airport they put me on the seats next to the wing exits. Does every airline do this?

    Hell, seats in the back used to be the cheapest - takes you longer to get off, and generally noisier since it’s behind the wings/engines. It’s also a rougher ride.

    I liked flying there because no one else wanted those seats, so I could often get an empty row (way back when)
