Default how to find out if seated together?

I'm flying with my partner to Boston from Amsterdam on NW 37 on Monday.
We checked in online, but could only change seats on the MAN-AMS leg. On
the Boston leg we're in 29 H and J. I'm assuming these are together
(i.e. no "I") but is there a way to check? Going to either website
doesn't let us see the seating plan, and going to NWA just redirects
back to KLM.

Any help appreciated!

Sorry to follow-up, but I just found them on NWA's site- looks like exit
row seats...

They are adjacent exit row seats on an Airbus 330-300 on the starboard side.

A good resource for locating seats is at http://www.seatguru.com/

Thanks- I found that website after the initial post!

We've had those seats before- I don't find the people milling around the
toilets annoying!

Perhaps more importantly, we were checked into two non-adjacent seats on
the MAN-AMS portion near the back- I was able to change that to two
adjacent seats in row 3. For the connection, any extra minutes not spent
on the plane at AMS are a bonus!

My first thought would be to call the airline. They might be more
helpful than you might think..


I found it easier to check online, and John answered the question
quickly. I did initially call Northwest, but was told it would be an
8-minute wait.

However.... I'm delighted to report that, in fact, we didn't sit there
at all. When we boarded at AMS, the KLM staff upgraded us to business-
we got 1C and G. Fabulous christmas present! No clue why we were
selected.... I'm putting it down to my partner's snazzy jacket and tie!
