exit row on award booking
Hi all,
I'm thinking about booking an economy flight using avios for next September. The availability isn't even open yet. I was wondering if I book on the first day the award availability opens, would it be possible for me to choose an exit row seat? If my plan changes, I only have to pay 25 euros to cancel my flight right?
Thanks!

I do not believe that you will be able to manage an Avios booking on the EI website - Avios bookings are effectively made via a third party, and only cash bookings made on the EI website can be managed on the EI website.
Therefore, I would expect you would need to ring Aer Lingus and see if they can assign you your seats.
I don't think you need to be in such a rush to buy exit-row seats. Is this shorthaul or longhaul?
And are you sure it is a good use of Avios and cash to redeem for these flights?
