FCIs do not support automatic failover by availability groups: FCIs do not support automatic failover by availability groups, so any availability replica that is hosted by an FCI can be configured for manual failover only.

Hi Perry
I know this post is a few weeks old, I just wanted to run something by you.
So I understand that when combining FCI with AG, automatic database failover is gone, but you still have automatic instance failover. Am I correct in this?
When you have an AG with no FCI, you have automatic database failover but no instance failover. Am I correct in this?
Are you aware of any way to achieve automatic failover of an instance and database using 2012 AlwaysOn functionality?
Thanks
