- AY MMB tells me that it's not a AY operated flight , so not possible.
- Tried RJ MMB too: I was apparently able to choose seats but it seems to have no real effect, and seats number are not shown after exiting seat selection.

Do I really have to call? And BA or AY?

Thanks!
I had exactly the same thing and had to call AY. To be honest it was a complete pleasure - the agent couldn't have been more helpful. Quite the contrast to the BA experience (GGL line honourably excepted...!).
