Because you cannot. You need to call the airline.

Also, what type of flights are they? You can select seats only on domestic or intercontinental legs, not on medium haul.

Impossible. If you'd like to change your ticket you must call the airline or visit a ticketing desk, and unless it is an intercontinental flight (in which case you could have booked seats at the moment of buying the ticket) then you probably may as well wait until online check-in to select your seats.

Many thanks for the info^, its a booking from ACC to FCO. A bit strange when used to booking with BA/KLM. I will have to wait for check-in to change seats.

For ACC-FCO you should be able to prereserve seats by calling, if you wish.

Also, beware of the shameplane, when are you flying?

LOL comparing AZ to BA for tech and ground support? Be kind to AZ, mate, that is a most unfair comparison...

Not sure what he means by the shameplane, although you should note that the 767 which operates this route has no PTV's.

And that specific 767 is - reportedly - in bad conditions in the coach cabin.
