Is there any way to reap this benefit if, for example, I book an award flight on British Airways using Executive Club Miles/Avios Points?

Thanks!

OW Ruby has not been a valid BAEC tier until BA announced a new "Bronze" tier this week (and I'm not sure when it becomes effective.) Up till now, only OW Sapphire and above (AA Plat) could pre-select seats on BA, so you'll have to wait for BA to synch its Ruby tier perks with the rest of OW to see if AA Golds will get any benefits.
