At one time, BA only allowed a certain percentage of seats to be pre-assigned, whether one was flying in Club Europe or Euro Traveler - and this policy applied to all passengers, even BA Golds and Silvers and oneWorld Emeralds and Sapphires. All passengers booking after the percentage limit had been reached had to wait to select their seats.
I don't know if this is still the case - experts, can you comment, please?
