It would need to be company policy to pay for seat upgrades. My company books WN into Choice as the minimum (not Basic). Choice allows selecting a standard seat at booking. This is all I will be allowed by policy.

For this reason, having ALP (or in my case United Gold) has additional benefit.

YMMV
