I've bought several tickets with LATAM, one via Delta with DL codes and another one directly with LATAM for domestic flights.

The LATAM tickets on domestic flights allowed me to choose any seat for free...
Thank you for the idea about Facebook, but how you contacted them on Facebook? I just called - and it was long and Rep was not helpful at all; he even does not hear about DL Diamond benefits while flying LATAM.
Nope, it was regular economy, but their app wanted me to pay for any seat choice despite DL FF# was in the system.
