This seems so unlikely.

you can add your aa membership number in MMB on BA.com and it should pick up your status. If your BAEC number is already in then just use the finnair site MMB to remove your BAEC number and add your aa number.

Once you get to 7 days before the flight just go back to MMB and seat selection for free should work. P
