By "Gold" is this AA, BA gold or what?
AA gold = OW ruby (bottom level)
BA gold = OW emerald (top level)

https://www.oneworld.com/travel-benefits (look down the very bottom of the page)
she’s flying AA, with her AA account on file.
It is a buy to AA Gold (so bottom tier) offer, she currently has no status
The goal/desire is to get one of those seats that is currently unoccupied (and not a Extraa seat) that only costs $90 because it’s not in the middle section of the 2-4-2 configuration. Hoping that by being Gold she might be able to just select one of those seats without paying extra, but we can’t figure that out.
Also, thx to the other poster for clarifying O vs B fares!

Thanks again all!
