Although I think you are Emerald (BA G?) they don't extend this to other OneWorld. But who knows if you call in.
They have sort of solved the spinning wheel problem for LAN flights, LAN tix, it does sometimes inform you the fare class does not allow it, but I don't think it has been solved for other tix. But for sure, major frustration to watch the wheel spin. Silly on them.
For my SCL-MDZ flights next month, this is what shows up:
07 de febrero 2014 Santiago de Chile - Mendoza LA 932
Pasajero Asiento
zpaul La clase o el vuelo no permite reserva de asiento.
No spinning wheel anymore, it just tells you you're too cheap upfront.
