Data Point: Booked a TK business class award ticket (US-IST-Asia) on the website - at the time of booking, I was able to select a seat on the IST-Asia segment, but not the US-IST segment. This is my 2nd booking for 2021 with the identical experience regarding seat selection.
Appears that seat selection is blocked for business class award tickets to/from North America - has anyone else had similar data points for reservations made in 2021?
