So, if your a PM, GM, SM on any other fare class ticket other than Y or B, you would then have to pay the additional fee for the coach choice seat.
I'm just about to call Customer Care and ask the question again....
The "and passengers" part distinguishes the non-elites who must be on a Y or B fare. It is free to elites regardless of fare class.
