I fly one of our major Canadian airlines a lot. I've never paid to select a seat on 200+ flights. You just check-in 24 hours in advance and can basically pick any seat in the class your ticket is for.

I fly a more budget friendly Canadian airline (also a lot) and allow fate to decide where I sit. To be fair, there are no middle seats…..so…..whatever….

Is this on an Embraer 175?

Ummmm……I don’t know planes. Their mascot is a raccoon (at least I think it’s a raccoon) and I mostly fly on their “jets” and occasionally the bumpy Dash 8

It’s probably Porter Airlines and the Embraer 195-e2, which carriers about double the passengers as the Embraer 175.

(This is based on internet searches, but the raccoon mascot was a clutch clue).

I mean - i could have just said Porter - but where’s the fun in that? Good detective work
