But unlike the others, I am One World status.... AA current Platinum and Lifetime Gold. I don't get it. 40 years of flying AA and One World, and now I have to worry that there is a good chance that I will be stuck in a middle seat. Not a happy camper.
I would HUACA. https://www.cathaypacific.com/cx/en_...your-seat.html makes it clear that Sapphires can select any seat for free.
