Hi,
I currently have 2 Economy MileSAAver Awards On Hold with Alaska Airlines. I will go ahead and purchase today or tomorrow. When I booked online at aa.com it told me to contact Alaska Airlines to get my seat assignment. I have booked partner awards many times over the years, but never with Alaska Airlines.
-Is there a different Record Locator for this trip other than the one given by AA?
-And if so, I am assuming the best way to find this is by calling AA?
-Is there a fee to choose a pre-selected seat?
-Is it best to get the seat assignment prior to ticketing or does it matter?
THANKS in advance!
