I have super saver N fare from USA to Vietnam. According to JAL, seat assignment can only be done 72 hours ahead of the departure time, even for oneworld emerald.
The 2009 threads indicated that even at 72 hours, there are still decent seats available that JAL has blocked for the frequent flyers. Is this information still true today?
Check in at T-72. You will have access to seats available to Emeralds if they haven't been taken. Get to the airport early if you want good seats (assuming still available) that are blocked for airport assignments.
