New seating at airport

Toronto airport and I notice some new style seating with free internet browsing and better seats to sit in whilst waiting for your flight. Not that I had much time to wait - can't be doing with all that hanging around malarkey!
Now for the long journey home. Thought I'd played a blinder by getting a window seat with a spare seat between me and the aisle seat. Check in guy said it was so far back and the flight wasn't full so I'd be fine. Only to find that the person on the aisle seat dragged her mother from further down the plane to sit next to her as she didn't speak much English!!!
I think this is going to be a VERY long flight.... I so hope I can get some sleep...
