Seat assignments are done by the flight operator, not by UA.

It can help to have the operating airlines PNR for your flight when you contract the operating airline, see the wiki graphic to find those.

In some cases partner airlines are not assignment seats in advance or for free, but that should not be an issue in these cases.
