Choosing Your Own Seat On EU Airlines?

It is possible at many American airlines' website to choose your seat when booking a flight.

How come that this is rarely an option in Europe? The European carriers use extensive e-services as e-tickets, online check-in and so on, but not seat selection.

If I for instance book a KL or AF flight on expedia.com, I am able to choose the seat. I can as well do it by writing KL or calling AF (DOH!!).

Does Europeans simply don't mind where to sit, or is there another reason for this? I'm pretty annoyed about it, as I hate ending up in a middle seat on a 12 hours flight in cattle class.


Last flight: SAW-CPH on H9 on 02/11/09 - Next Flights: 23/12/09 CPH-AAL on QI, 30/12/09 CPH-LHR on SK, 19/01/10 CPH-CDG-
