We're booked, my BFF and I, but no seats. I'm in Business First on United and the equivalent on Aegean to Athens. It's quite confusing that we cannot book seats until what, a day or 2 before?
Even as an A3 Gold you can't actually see the Business class (or Economy) seating until OLCI opens 48hrs before the flight. You can, however, call Aegean to pre-select C class seats. I'm not sure if that privilege is extended to other *A Golds but you could try calling them. It's just not something that can be done online. A3 keep the seating private until 48hrs before the flight so that's why United can't see the availability. I wouldn't worry too much anyway - it makes very little difference unless you actually want row 1 and tbh 3 weeks out there's a good chance an A3 status pax. has already pre-selected at least some of those.
