Midwest saver service seats?

[Douglas W. Hoyt]

Midwest Airlines (nee glorious Midwest Express) has launched "Saver
Service" (read: "back to sardine service") on a few of its routes. I made
a booking, and was the only person so far to get a seat assignment. The
computer put me in 10A both directions (the DC-9's have 2/3 seating).

Does anyone know if there are necessarily any better window seats than 10A
on the Midwest "Saver Service" configurations--and, for that matter, why
they would assign 10A as the first seat automatically given on the plane?!?!

Are you sure about this? I thought Midwest Express was famous for their
semi FC seating. 2-2 in DC-9s.

Their aircraft with "Signature Service" still have the 2-2 seating.
They now have aircraft for "Saver Service" which have 2-3 seating. You
can see the difference here:

Their Saver Service is mainly to the west coast, other than San
Francisco, and to Orlando.
