Let me walk you through how I got those Always5Star seats using the app.

1. Download the app to your smartphone (if not already done).
2. Log in to your account and view a list all of your flight reservations. Select the reservation you wish to search for availability.

3: After you've selected this option, you'll be taken to your current seat assignments. This example shows that my husband and I were assigned seats 1 and 2. These are First Class bulkheads seats because this is my preference. My preference is for an aisle seat. My husband prefers the window. This seating arrangement was perfect for me. But I could have changed my seats if necessary. The "X" seats cannot be changed because they are already assigned. The dark blue seats, however, are still available. I could have chosen to change my seat.
