I had a ticket booked with United on 016 in Y class for an intra-europe flight on LH metal (that’s 1 of 4 flights on this ticket). It shows as “Economy” with the LH booking code on LH website. In fact it shows twice because a UA operated flight on this journey is waitlisted for upgrade. However, the LH website doesn’t show I can select seat (I’m 7 days out from departure) and LH usa phone rep said first said “preferred seat selection” is chargeable for wanted 30€.

Should I expect a comp Y seat selection? Should I just call LH back?

I’m not opposed to paying if I must but there seems something not right in how LH handles UA booked flights.

TIA
