Most airlines allow check in only 24 hours before flight. Some airline let you select seats before check in and many will do this for frequent flyers, some give this service only to frequent flyers. A good travel agent can overcome those obstacles for you. However, according to flight regulations, the really comfortable seats which are in the cabin front and next to the emergency exit cannot be assigned prior to flights. The airline should verify that passengers in those seats are able to read the emergency instructions and being physically able to open emergency doors and assist passengers in emergencies. I guess that being 6'6 usually satisfies the second requirement... Yair (Not flying much, but works for the airline industry).
