this never happend to me on delta, and i have no status on them at all, and dont care for the airline. they are telling you that you have to pay because there are only "priority seats" left. If you book really early there are usually seats together towards the back (the seats up by the front and exit seats are for purchase). sometimes if im travelling with somebody (and we use delta) we dont assign our seats and the agents see that we are travelling together, she/he tries to seat us together. keep looking online after you book your tickets, the airlines do hold certain seats or block them
