We check in yesterday at the airport and luckily I noticed we were seated in seat B (an aisle) and seat K (a window, but on the other seat of the airplane). We were there very early so had enough time to return and complain to the agent. Luckily she was able to seat us together, but we still don't know why they would have separated us. When we got on we looked where are original seats were and it was two adult men seated there, so it couldn't have been a case of moving us to seat a family together. Sometimes you just have to wonder if airlines do these things for no other reason than to be assholes.
