A representative told me via chat that the codeshare agreement between AA and B6 dictates that AA customers don't have access to the seat map until check in. Is there any truth to that statement? Again, I'm just looking to select a non-EMS seat on ticket that AA sold to me as "economy".
I don't know if it's true, but I can pull up a seat map for a JetBlue flight next week without buying a ticket. Why don't you just pull up the seat map for your flight that way, decide what Core seat you'd like, and then just contact JetBlue to request it?
