Now the AA website cannot assign seats, and the JL site says "No Seat selection for this flight".
How do I get seats assigned for AA Codeshares on JL? Or does JL only allow seat selection if you book with them?
You used to be able to do it via the JL website but you had to use the JL flight number. Another quirk was the naming convention. I believe it to get it to work I had to use FIRSTNAMEMIDDLENAME with no spaces for the given name field.
