“passengers have limited say in which aircraft they fly with”….. to a point

There’s a site that tells people what aircraft they are going to be flying… people are starting to use it..

I’m flying to Rome later this year with my family, I chose an airline flying an airbus rather than one that uses 737s. It’s a bit of extra travel time, may not impact the airline, but I made the decision, I’m sure I’m not the only one doing this.
