As long as you have ONE ticket with all of the different airlines you want which has been ticketed say by Expedia, there would be no complications. Some airlines let you book seats online and some don't.
I remember last year a situation that made it complicated. I had two separate tiks SJC-LAX on UA and LAX-BOM on AI - that entire itinerary wasn't connected up in UA's system.that made it complicated and I spent about 45 mins breaking my head to finally have my bags checked all the way..
Hope that helps..

I note that I can book different airlines on outbound and return flights? Does this cause any sorts of complications? I've always traveled on same carrier, for all parts of trip. On upcoming trip to RDU to Montana, I get some better options on Expedia and would like to try them.
Expedia tells me that seat selection is available on "some flights". What exactly does that mean?
Thanks so much.
