United lets me pick seats for their flights without charge, but Swiss is wanting $29/seat for the ORD-ZRH leg and $11/seat for the ZRH-FLR leg. Is there a way to get them to let you pick seats without paying the seat selection fee since it's an award flight through United?

only in business class. At OLCI you can get seats and if you OLCI early usually good ones.
