Having recently taken advantage of the status match between Marriot and Royal Jordanian, giving me Bronze Sunbird status , And RJ being part of One World , l should be able to gain from the Bronze level status in BA and the ability to select seats for free 7 days before travel. So is it possible to take advantage of the free seat selection and still be able to acquire the points when l travel?
Im heading away in just over a weeks time from ABZ onto LAS and would dearly love some guidance on how and what l need to do, While l appreciate Bronze doesn't carry that many perks, selecting seats for free is a good perk The booking was made via BA with the avios redemption. Which l always thought didnt give any tierpoints,yet on the same booking last year l was surprised to see l had been allocated tierpoints.

Thanks in advance for any help that can be given,
