I agree completely that having to jump through all the hoops to add our names to the reservations and try to get a better seat and check in are a complete pain in the rump and absolutely need to change with our next PWA. Over the course of a year, I know I waste a lot of my time dealing with my DH reservations.

I have no idea why we would waste negotiating capital on this (in all fairness you may not have been meaning this).

I’m amazed I could get it to do anything.
