Watch out now. they shut down my post where I said my wife tries to pick a row where the aisle seat person isn't weight challenged.A18-19 are very high. I am guessing that you made your reservation a long time ago. Or, maybe the flight is very light - thanksgiving day?
As to getting onboard that early, you can not of course pick your seatmates. If the plane is full, they can choose to sit with you. If my wife and I are traveling together, I usually look for a row with a smaller person to share the row with. If plane is running full, we do not take an empty row since that means SOMEBODY is going to take the 3rd seat and with our luck, a very large person.
We always do window and middle so we can watch the movies I dubbed onto my DVD player. I am not a fan of the aisle seat, since I can sit in the window seat for the 4+ hour flight and not need the restroom. Apparently, from my observations, maybe people cannot and I would hate having to get up a couple a times a flight to let somebody out.We always pick an aisle seat each, across from each other. More elbow room and easier to get to bathroom. Just hope someone inside doesn't have to pee every 15 minutes. When in flight raising the arm rest makes it easy to get in and out and more room

I just put movies on my tablet. We have more modern tablets but we use old Blackberry Playbooks. If we were to lose them, no big deal.We always do window and middle so we can watch the movies I dubbed onto my DVD player.

My wife can also make it most flights w/o, but I'll admit if the aisle person gets up, she'll also go.
