While I haven't read all 65 pages, I have read enough
On our last DW trip (December 2017), we flew with Delta. I booked our flights online, but opted not to pay for seat selection (the fine print said something along the lines of "while we do everything we can to ensure you have the seats of your choice, it cannot be guaranteed"). With our family of five, and a connecting flight, seat selection was $25 x 5 x 2. I was still worried about this, and while my husband said, they wouldn't seat a three year old without parents, I ended up calling the airline to choose my seats.
Turns out it was a code share airlines, and this other airline told me if I paid for my seats, we WOULD be guaranteed to sit together. She told me unless I paid, there was no way to ensure I sat with my kids (6 & 9 I wasn't as worried about).
Why didn't you just pay the seat selection upgrade for you and the 3 year old if you weren't worried about the rest of the family sitting alone?
